Overview
It’s normal to have days where you feel sad
or days when you’re overjoyed. As long as
your mood changes don’t interfere with your
life to an extreme degree, they’re generally
considered to be healthy.

On the other hand, you may have a medical
condition if you switch from extremely happy
to extremely depressed on a regular basis. If
you have serious and frequent shifts in
mood, you should tell your doctor about
them. They can discuss the possible reasons
for why you’re experiencing them.

When to see your doctor
It’s common to experience a change in
mood occasionally or to go through a short
period of feeling elated or blue. But if your
behavior is unpredictable for a number of
days or longer, it may be a sign of something
more serious.
