Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you nay have either bipolar disorder or borderline personality disorder. In that case, you can consult a psychiatrist for proper diagnosis. Management in your case depends upon diagnosis. You can also consult a psychologist for personality assessment. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
