I'm not sure that would be bipolar disorder. Typically, but not always bipolar cycles are several months to 1-2 years. In my limited experience and knowledge flipping that quickly would be something else. Schizophrenia maybe, IDK. I have seen medications increase the cycle rates. Even then the cycles were in weeks not minutes. Just about the only thing I can attribute that fast or nearly that quick of a change is when a daily medication wears off after 12-16 hours of a long or stressful day.
Yeah, well that works. I am not really a psychologist and due to China Virus have not stayed at a Holiday in for several months so I will leave the diagnosis to your apparent greater knowledge on the subject. :mrgreen:
Me neither. Just a medical technologist surrounded by a few folks with thyroid disorders, which can and has lead to bipolar disorder and or similar issues with some of the same effects. :tiphat:
