Some Kind of Mood Disorder?

For the past year, I have been having really bad mood swings. I am a girl, but I don't think that they have anything to do with my menstrual cycle. Once or twice a month, for between 3 and 7 days, I feel horrible. I feel guilty about nothing, really sad, hopeless, helpless, and like it won't go away. I just generally hate myself. It feels like there is no escape and no way to make it stop. I feel like I have no control. Sometimes I feel like cutting. A few times I have thought of death. One time, I thought of death and then three days later I was absolutely back to normal. I have a mood chart now to track my emotions, so I am hoping this will help. I have been on other sites, and they said that I am probably bipolar, but I don't agree. Bipolar involves manic states, and I don't have that. When I don't feel really bad, I just feel normal. I don't feel over-the-top happiness. I know that most of you aren't professionals and that you can't technically diagnose me with anything, but if you could give me your opinion that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

In my opinion, if you are having emotional trouble, then you have emotional trouble, even if severe. No use pinning a label on it. All that is really important is why you feel the way you do. This involves thoughts that lead to this state, your views on life, your basic emotional needs and what is lacking, etc. And it takes awhile to decipher all that, but it'll be a huge relief, as well as more productive than holding to a disorder as a crutch.

Also, confidence and perspective can play into this. The bigger the perspective, and the higher the confidence, the less tendency to 'feel like shit' even if one is upset at something, much less blame oneself. If that makes sense.

It's probably just a teenage hormone thing. Most teenagers get depressed every once in a while.
If you feel suicidal very ofter, i would go to a doctor and they can give you a light antidepressant. No need to put a label on it.
If its not that sever, it will probably ease up once you get older. Keep positive.

I'm a bit too insecure.
But I'm blessed to be me and not you.
