Hey McPac,
> Are your irritability issues caused by a medication?
> I know I've battled irritability issues related to Zoloft.No, my dysphoric mood swings are just part of the joys of my bipolar disorder. But some meds and supplements can make it worse. For example, I take Enada NADH for my atypical depression and it works very well for that purpose. But it also makes my irritability worse if I take too much.
Unlike your case, SSRIs take away my irritability, but within a few weeks the SSRIs interfere with my dopaminergic pathways causing me to lose all my drive (motivation) and I become apathetic and emotionally blunted.
