So recently, I noticed something wrong with me a couple of months ago. It started out when I had major mood swings. I mean major. Like when I fight with my sister and get angry with her, I suddenly don't feel really angry and want to like play with her or something. And other times, sometimes I yell at my sister or my parents for minor details they missed. It's like someone keeps flipping emotion switches in my brain. Another thing that's going on is I'm having really nasty nightmares. In them, I see myself either being killed or killing others especially my friends. I usually tried to ignore these, but they're becoming worse. Now I'm waking up around 2 in the morning refusing to go back to sleep resulting to tiredness during the day and irritation. I'm really scared right now. I'm planning to go see a doctor to know if anything is wrong with me. I really can't consult my real friends because I'm afraid my mind is going to snap. Please, can anyone help me?
You might be bipolar if you're having rapid mood swings. I'd say go see a psychologist since this situation would fit them more than a doctor. Doctor can't do **** about your dreams or mood swings but a psychologist can refer you to a psychiatrist for some medication for the mood swings and can probably help you find the reason why you're getting those kind of dreams.
Thank you for your help. I really appreciate it, but aren't most meds made for those situations fitting for adults only?
No, they make medication for all ages I believe. Though if you're in your early to mid-teens, it might just be part of growing up, haha. I sometimes get crazy mood swings like that too.
Really? That's nice. Yes they're more frequent in my teen years, but I don't think it's just bipolar emotions I have.
