Hello,
Thanks for your query.
I do agree with you and you should get yourself evaluated properly by a psychiatrist because these symptoms are suggestive of a possibility of mood disorder in your case.
You can try an online screening quiz for Bipolar disorder. If you get a high score , in that case you should consult a psychiatrist for proper evaluation and management.

Hi
I admire your positive outlook and congratulate you for the attitude.
Now I guess you have depression and it could be due to some stress in your personal life. In that case, you need some help.
However let me give my opinion here.
I think, you have mood swing and that could be part of bipolar disorder or borderline personality disorder. You need combination therapy of mood stabilizer and low benzodiazepine would help you. You can try some relaxation exercise like JPMR or deep breathing exercise. That would keep you calm and relax.
For this you need expert's guidance by psychiatrist or psychologist .
Hope this helps.
