What Causes Extreme Mood Swings When Diagnosed With Bipolar Disorder And BPD?
Hi, I suffer from bi polar 1 and bpd. I have been keeping a record of my moods and have noticed they can flip from the extremes through out the day, I ve been reading about rapid cycling but that is every few weeks according to the Info I have found online. So is mine rapid cycling or something else?
This rapid change can be related to cyclothymia. You can talk to your psychiatrist about the diary of mood changes and he will talk to you in person about your issues.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
