Mood Swings
Hi,
Not sure if trigger warnings are required, there's some mention of suicidal thoughts, but no detail.
How common are mood swings in AS? I will illustrate this with an example: tonight, I was working on a rathe rdifficult task and it kept failing. Then eventually I gave up, went ottally crazy nd frustrted. This could be typical Aspie stuff with handlign unexpected situtions, right? The thing is, my mood swung all the way to suicidality and rage, I dissociated (I have dissociative identity disorder too) and now I can only vague remember what happened. I don't understand why I had to rage over such a little thing as a tool not doing what I wanted it to. Is t here any way to prevent or stop this? I mean, it set on so suddenly that I couldn't feel it coming; one minute I was just trying ot get the thing working without feeling irritated, and hte next mometn I blew up. Any advice?
