Exclamation mood swings

Hi,

I've been having nasty mood swings. My therapist has suggested psych meds to alleviate them. I get really depressed and angry once a week for up to 8 hours and then I'm back to normal. Sometimes I go up to a month without feeling this way. I also have a lot of anxiety which a usually manage.

I've been following a mostly macro diet for three years. I've also been off meds for three years and I'm actually more stable now than I was on the meds. In the past I was in and out of the hospital even though I was trying different drug cocktails.

What can I try before going and getting prozac? I have to do something. The mood swings are destroying my relationship with my partner and making me temporarily suicidal. I want to try a natural cure because I know from experience what a rollercoaster psychiatric medications can be.

Sincerely,

Mary H.
