 Mood Swings And Thals
Hi friends ,
A member requested that I ask if anyone has experienced or knows of thals experiencing sudden mood swings. The mood swings are characterized by feelings of anger and depression, its the time when you are totally fed up frm ur life, but they only last a very short period....just minutes. The person also does not feel like talking to anyone when this happens and wants to be left alone. Some days this happens more than once during the day.
The nature of this problem does not seem to fit into any pattern of chronic depression, or even any hormonal disorder. Both would result in a more constant feeling of depression for a longer period of time. These are short bursts of anger and depression that understandably trouble this member.
Does anyone have any experience with this or have any ideas what may be going on? Is this a problem familiar to thals? Is it possibly related to a medication?
ppl say that this kinda problem can be cured by meditation , many ppl are trying it and are having good results.
Most people I talked to have experienced mood swings from time to time. Depression is the most common symptom but anger was also mentioned frequently.A commonly mentioned cause of depression was thinking about the future and concern over whether one could ever have a "normal" future. This cause could just as easily apply to non-thals depressions. Many people have similar feelings without having any type of physical problems. Marriage, kids, working are all things that people worry about. Many "normal" people feel exactly the same way.and when it comes to thalassemics , ppl get more tense and have more mood swings than a non -thal.
i would like to know experiences of each and every member here..... pls
regards
