Always let a doctor make the final dx, however it do seem like bipolar characteristics that you are describing. You should definitely tell your doctor this. There are lots of meds that is effective in treating this.

Could be BP best you see your doc to find out . keep a log of your mood swings to show the doc. .

you can have mood swings with a number of illnesses besides BP (borderline personality, PTSD)...best bet would be to seek an assessment with a psychiatrist

we can tell you all sorts of things, but a doc, needs to make the proper dx....
when I have my rages and anger, I get out my spidey bop bag and beat the hell outta him...I used to and still do at times throw things, but I try to get to spidey first...get to the doc's...good luck!
