Feel fine one moment and then like crap the next?

*xx-Toxik-Kitteh-xx Jan 6, 2013 Student General Artist

I keep having these mood swings over the smallest things. Like I said, one moment I'll feel happy and carefree but then a few minutes later I feel like dying.
I don't know whether or not I have depression, though.
What do you guys think?

Go to a doctor. The internet isn't a freaking shrink.

Could be hormonal, could be depression. Either way, you need to talk to a doctor. Until then, just stay chill with it and ride out each feeling as it comes.

Have you been by chance diagnosed as Bi-Polar?

If you are in your teens, this is actually fairly normal.

First off, take stock of your life! Are you going through any new or unusual stressers right now? Moving? Changes in school? Changes in social status (student to working or some such thing)? Maybe a friend or family member is going through some major event - like an illness - that affects you in some way ? It doesn't have to be a quick change. Even something that seems long and drawn out or several months away may be stressing you out now.

And any life event, no matter how much of a handle you may think you have on it, might be putting you under more stress than you realize and causing your emotions to go more than a little haywire. So keep that in mind before you even consider letting a doctor put you on some weird medication that may help or may just make things worse! You don't want to be on a long-term symptoms-management drug for what may be a short-term problem.

Hormonal Imbalance
But you really need to see a specialist at once

~KingStephenArthur Jan 6, 2013 Student Photographer

There are a ton of things that could cause something like this. Probably the most common and least worrisome would be a hormonal imbalance.

You could go seek professional help if you feel it is urgent. Or if it is not putting you into a giant panic just wait it out a little bit and see if anything changes on it's own. Could be one of life's many unexplainable mysteries that simply needs time to improve. Just use your best judgement.

I think you must meet a psychiatrist, he may be able to help as it does not sound to be normal, and the early you get rid of this the better for you.
