I'm just looking for some advice or some sort of information on what I'm experiencing, and most importantly why.
Please don't tell me to go to the doctor.

For about a month or so, I've been experiencing certain moods where I'd have a general sense of unhappiness. These moods always appear at night, most often than not when I'm in bed. Listening to music generally helps to subside these emotions, but they're still present.
During the day, I feel absolutely fine; I'm usually lively and content with myself. Then the nights comes, and I feel like **** again. At that point, I just don't feel like myself, it's as if something has just taken over my thoughts, and everything becomes so irrational. I just want it to stop, because it's honestly starting to frighten me. It's strange, I usually love the night and I know that may sound odd, but I find it calming and quite relaxing. Now, it's all reversed and I hate the though of going to bed.

A few weeks ago there was an 'incident' which I was quite confused by. There was a day where I was in that depressive zone, and all of a sudden I just began to cry. This lasted for about 10 minutes, and the moment I stopped crying, I felt great. Like I was myself again. I just found it so strange, how quickly my thoughts flipped.

I'd really appreciate any advice.

Hey, never heard of something like this. Just wondering, how's your sleeping pattern? As in, do you sleep straight through the night/for how long, etc?

I know what you mean.. there was this certain emo phase i went through and it kinda led me to self harm. All you really need to do is talk to someone you have known for a while. Someone you really trust.

I told one of my close friends and she used do to the same.. she really helped me.

If you think you should see a doctor or therapist then act now. You wanna avoid a long term thing going on! xxxxxxxxx

It's alright I suppose. It'll usually take me 1-2 hours to fall asleep, but when I do, I generally sleep like a long, with very few disruptions. 10-12 hours.

don't know if you are a girl or a boy, but if you are a girl: did you change your pill or have some kind of treatment that involves hormons?

I know a few people I can talk too, but I'm not sure how this is going to help?
Don't get me wrong, I'm aware that speaking about my problems and venting will help, as I've done it previously. However in this case, I don't quite know what's setting these emotions off.

I'd rather not see a GP about this.

Girl, and no I'm not on the pill.

Usually, but this is just me so I don't really know if this would apply to you, during the day I'm around people and I'm busy and productive so I don't have enough time to 'think' because your mind is always being occupied. And then at night time, you're all alone and all these random deep thoughts are exposed and it's like your mind is running at 150mph.
Maybe it's depression. Has something happened to you? Are you repressing emotions? Stress?

I'm no doctor but it sounds like you may be showing symptoms of bipolar disorder, though this may not be the case. I advise you to talk to your parents/ a close friend who you trust or maybe think about going to see a doctor as they are qualified and can help you most. I hope you start feeling better soon xxx

It's a possibility but I'm uncertain. Prior to feeling this way, I actually experienced the opposite effect. So during the day, I'd feel quite unhappy and miserable, and then come the night I'd be absolutely fine. It's just so confusing.

I don't quite know; during the night I feel incredibly depressed. I know what depression feels like because I suffered from it several years ago, but this just feels far more intense.

I think that the most important thing is to not see the fear as an enemy, but us an ally to get to know yourself with all your vulnerability...the incident with the crying was a proof of how you mind can be closed up at one moment and go into a deep relaxation and letting go in the other...

this is a talk about fear and fearlessness that I found very inspiring...maybe you take some minutes and give it a try...
