Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had many episodes over a period of five years which I have thought has been normal and never seeked professional medical advice. I suffer fundamentally on extreme high moods of the point of just my hands are going so fast I have to say in my mind to stop - my down moods have got me into trouble which has concerned me very much. I had a fantastic career which progressed to 2nd nationwide for business to business sales and I just gave my resignation letter for no reason but my mind said leave this place. I just don t know what to put into words
I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. I think you are guiding the doctors towards bi-polar disorder. Your current symptoms do have some resemblance to bi-polar disorder. But there are so many other symptoms along with high and low. Also, high and low moods are extreme and mostly rungs into days, not minutes or hours.
Simple mood swings, exhilaration and distress, are normal with every career oriented, successful person. Talk to your friends and they shall also tell the same story. In case if you still want a confirmation, you can visit a psychologist for a psychometric test.
If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.
Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.
