Not sure if this is to do with the medication (30mg citalopram) or the depression in general. Some of the time I feel really low and isolated and on the odd occasion I feel really hyper and mischievous, and I do from time to time come out with really inappropriate comments which happen a lot at work.
Is this something I should be speaking to my doctor and therapist about? I just find it so hard to do the right thing
I get this, but I have been diagnosed with mixed affective state. It was BPD originally but the doctor changed his mind! I get brief periods of being a bit hyper with an elevated mood. Def speak to your doctor if it concerns you, as they might want to adjust your meds. I was just on an antidepressant for years, but I started to feel better after they incorporated a mood stabiliser into my regime. Good luck x
It all depends on what you are saying, if you are worried talk to your GP.

Hi I used to be like that. When on the occasions I did feel happy I realised I went somewhat over the top which seemed to irritate people. I recognised this and took steps to curb my behaviour a bit. I thought before I spoke. x
I completely understand how you feel. Sometimes I wonder if I feel overly excited sometimes (and somewhat annoying) because it feels so good not to be low. Maybe that's what it feels like to be moderately happy for most, but by comparison of how I previously felt I'm super ecstatic about feeling good? I'd say that if you are feeling low and isolated its super important to reach out to people, nobody deserves to feel lonely. It really depends on what the inappropriate comments were, but with that being said those who experience depression tend to be overly self critical. And sometimes our humour isn't really understood by other people. Hope this helps? best of luck xo
