Having Extreme Emotional Volatility And Instability. Is There Anything To Do?

Thanks for your query.
I think the lady in question is having extreme emotional volatility and instability.
While this is normal during the teething stages of any relationship, the extent to which you describe it, does not sound normal.
She could be having mild bipolar disorder where she fluctuates between mania and depression.
You could take your time before committing yourself, and gently suggest her to have a pyschologist's counselling and opinion, so that she is better grounded for the relationship.
Regarding the medications, shingles or herpes often affects the eye. What she is having are mostly steroid shots to treat the residual inflammation in the eye .
You need to be aware and cautious about the past history of herpes too, before any sexual intimacy.
All the best
Take care and feel free to ask further questions.


As you can understand, without meeting her, I cannot assess the severity of the condition that the lady is having.
Only you can assess it, or ask her to have a couple counselling session.
Yes, you have to stay protected if you plan to be sexually active.
She would have got it from one of her previous partners.
She is under no legal obligation to reveal the details, but you have to trust her word if you ask her and she cares enough to reply.
You DO have a moral right to know her past medical details for sure.
Take care, and do not hesitate in seeking professional help if you are confused.


I am very interested in the outcome ,looking forward to your reply.
Herpes is caused by different strains of the herpes virus.
Normally the one which causes ocular or eye infection is not the one responsible for sexually transmitted genital herpes, but it is possible.
One would need her complete records to comment definitely.
Once infected, with herpes, the Virus stays in the nerves lifelong, and the person is infectious.
You need to be sure about which type of herpes she had before you go in for sexual intercourse.
Most adults do not even know that they have herpes, but they are also potentially infectious.
It manifests as cold sores, genital lesions , as an acute flu like condition, or stays asymptomatic .
She could have picked up the infection from another person infected with herpes as they continue to shed the virus.
