Why Do I Get Angry And Irritated Feelings?

i feel as if im high on coke or something (and im not and havent been) its been this way for 2days now just hit me out of no where yesterday. Im even getting irritated and angry feelings, i cant sit still (or atleast not long) and could fall asleep untill 2 in the morning and woke up around 430 ready to go. its not that i hate this feeling its just "strange" and ive gotten it a few times now and everytime it passes i tell myself "your tripping" but im really not. what could this be?

Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for choosing Healthcaremagic.

I have read your query carefully and understood that you have had few episodes that lasted few days in which you have disturbed sleep (difficulty in initiating as well as decreased need for sleep), feeling high progressing to being irritable and angry, difficulty to remain seated for long (increased psychomotor activity or restlessness).

These episodes described by you suggest hypomanic episodes and need detailed psychiatric consultation. I would advice you to visit a psychiatrist near you.

Hope I have answered your query, let me know if you need any further information.
Regards
DR. ASHUTOSH SINGH
