Well sometimes i just wake up and that's it. Other days I need a trigger but that sets me off for weeks. depends i suppose...chemical or circumstantial? *shrugs* lost track...

to many questions u have made me go a dizzy com lol

Just about anything can trigger me off. I've woken up shitty mood, been in a floating happy mood by the time I go to work, my lunch I feel like shit, floating happy by the time I go home, then back to shit by bed... then I can go days in either mood.

i was meant to say cow lol

i can wake up and be in the best of mood..but then as the day goes on i et down..this often happens due to being boredom..and me thinking of why i am bored..i dnt hav frends gf etc..which makes me so depressed... sometimes..just not having wat other ppl can hav in life gets to me..things that a normal hunan being should be entitlted to

Sometimes things happen to you in your life that lift you up. Then thoughts (I call them those pesky little voices) come to your mind that you've heard all your life, beating you down. You don't want to believe them but sometimes it is really so very hard to fight them off. It never is really happening at the same time or same day, it just happens. That is the part that sucks 'cause it just creeps up on you without notice. Sure is hard to fight sometimes!!!!

Thanks for your replies, just trying to make sense of things.
Not sure there is any though!

For me, I guess it depends, mostly I think things trigger it. Like, looking in my bank account and seeing it negative, or going to work and having someone who thinks they're your boss but really they're not hassle you and try to "boss" you around. Or, for instance today, I was o.k., actually was feeling pretty good as I told above stated person that I was to busy to do their work for them, and then I received a phone call from my husband saying that he's going to possible be gone for x-mas. Now very sad. Now everything looks like shit for me today. Feeling tears well up as I write...so I will stop.

Just recently I went through almost a week of feeling really crappy and depressed. I was physically drained, couldn't snap out of it. Than one morning I woke up and I felt great like a million bucks. I actually wanted to leave the hose and go do stuff, I had no physical pain, and I was like my old self. Then I realized the sun was shining and it hadn't in so long. I think that had a lot to do with it.

Other than that it really varies. I can never predict my mood swings or physical pain

Well...sometimes I wake up feeling great...like today...but then as the day goes on I can feel things changing. sometimes it last days or weeks...then it fades and gets better. It's a rollercoaster for me.

Comes and goes. Today, small panic attacks...nothing I can't handle so far. Other days, throw me just about anything. Maybe it's in the water.

for me there seems to be no rhyme or reason....

It would be nice to be able to make sense of it. I like logic, I can deal with logic, trust me to get something that has no logic.

just by reading the posting by guypaul...sudden memorys came flooding back...so now its words for me...>:(

I can be up or down at any time without a trigger. Thankfully I've been up for about a week now, with just the first day being a manic one. I never know from one hour to the next how I will feel though
