Expressing mood swings can be tricky, especially with health issues. Understanding, fear of burdening others, or feeling misunderstood makes it harder.
Not always. I usually keep it to myself unless I really trust the person. Sometimes it feels easier to just ride it out alone than explain it. But when it gets heavy, I do open up, it helps to feel seen and understood.
I have been working on becoming more transparent when expressing my condition to others. I discovered that talking with reliable friends and family members helps me find genuine understanding of my feelings.
I try to be open about my mood swings with people I trust. Sharing how I feel helps me feel less alone and allows others to understand and support me better, without judgment.
