Dramatic mood swings can be symptoms of mood disorder. Feeling very high to very low are classical symptoms of a condition called 'Bipolar disorder'. Her symptoms are not because of 'Mirena'.
You should have your daughter evaluated by a psychiatrist. You daughter will require lithium. If she is feeding the baby, instead of lithium valproate or carbamazepine may be prescribed.
