I'm just past the 2 month point of my breakup. Not much communication either and none in the last few weeks.

 

I noticed myself feeling either extremely depressed or extremely happy. I don't feel "normal" in either of these states, but yes I prefer the happiness although it doesn't last as long. Its almost as if I am high.

 

I have felt "normal" for maybe 12 hours in the last two months.

 

The thing that bugs me is that there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to when the happiness occurs, otherwise I would try to duplicate the circumstances! It just seems like it comes out of the blue and then is triggered away by something into depression.

 

Is this normal? Is it a good sign? I'm hoping it is better than feeling depressed all of the time which is what I had before :)

Having significant mood swings is not mparticularly "normal" but could be due to a number of factors. One of them is age and attendant hormone levels and changes. Another could be a neurological chemical imbalance. It might just be situational. This might be something you may wish to discuss with your physician.
