so correct me if i'm wrong, but are you saying you feel like ou should be feeling really down but aren't?

dunno, at least with me it's a constant up and down, up and down... no advice really as i don't know what to do with it myself, but you hold on.

My emotions are always going up and down. One minute I'll feel great and the next I want to curl up and die. You're not alone in that.

So, you're feeling bad about not feeling bad? Like, if you're going to feel bad at all you should feel bad all the time? Is that what you mean?

Try to soak up every minute of feeling good. Try to notice as many good things as you can- lunch tasted good, someone smiled at you, there's a pretty leaf on the sidewalk, that sort of thing. Noticing good things and hanging on to them always helps me get through the bad spells.

Hugs and good luck,

my moods have been swinging like a monkey all week and it's driving me crazy. at the moment i actually feel ok, but with sadness underneath and i've got no reason to feel like that...

Oh yeah, up, down, side ways, loop the loop. Right now I'm down down down and feeling like I'll never go up again. But I know that when eventually I do go up again I won't remember just how low I was. I can understand that people would think that if you freakded out the other day you should be low, but if the reason you were freaked is resolved can't you just tell them it's all ok now?
