What Causes Mood Swings And Poor Memory?

Hi, I am very worried about the way I am acting! I m Male and keep seem to having funny moments of emotions, I will go from being really happy, to suddenly becoming really angry and agitated over nothing, it s really starting to affect my relationship. This has been going on over the last few 6 months or so, and sometimes I will go for a couple of weeks feeling fine, but then suddenly going funny again. I have also noticed my memory seems to be playing up on me!! I have had on a few occasions more so recently where I would speak to colleagues. Heres some examples when it happened: my colleague spoke to me about something in the morning, and then I discussed this again in the afternoon, where I thought it was discussed the day before. another... a colleague passed on a message to me verbally, and later that afternoon I remembered and asked to be reminded what it was, and my colleague advised me she told me yesterday?? I was adamant it was the same day. So is this something that s related and should I be concerned.... any helps/suggestions would be great. I am coming up to 21 years in January. Thanks Olly

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. First of all let me assure you that there is nothing wrong with you. You just completed a development stage which is called adolescence and is entering into adult stage. You need to identify yourself in the outside world. Your role, identity. In such a complex scenario, every disappointment (life, work) adds up and give you irritation. Because almost nothing happens as you wish. Irritation and disappointment leads to anger and loss in confidence. Even memory problems are created due to these. Keep your cool. Understand you, exercise hard and let your negative energy out.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
