Mood swings  hit without warning and change our outlook of the entire day. Although they are a part of the bipolar most of us are aware of, they're still difficult to deal with.

A bright sunny day turns dark and overcast. We see the clouds and can understand the change. With mood swings, we can't always see the trigger that brings the change. There isn't one specific event that causes our day to go from sunny and happy to dark and moody. Some of us can see the darkness moving in but can't stop it either.

Regardless, finding our way out of the darkness is the challenge.
