When mood is stable, people usually have regular appetites, sleep patterns and energy levels. They have reasonable decision-making skills and planning and organizational abilities.
When someone is manic, they usually don’t sleep for more than a few hours a night. They are irritable, hyperactive, and restless. They can be angry and aggressive.
Americans and people around the world have mood swings every day. Mood swings can change from one minute to the next. Such shift can vary in intensity from subtle and barely noticeable to extreme and all-consuming.
They can last for days, weeks, even months at a time and years to come when everyone least expect it to happen. Mood swings tend to take the form of intensified emotional reactions.
Sometimes, the swing can take the person high, and he fells a particular strong delight in everything around him, the weather, a movie, his dinner companion.
Other times, however, mood swings can take him on a wild roller-coaster ride of emotions, such as intense sorrow, despair, love, anger, anxiety, general depression or fear.
Exercise is helpful in controlling mood swings. Thirty minutes of walking every day has been proven to help with depression and mood swings.
