<human>: My husband is a very moody person.  One day he is fine and enjoys doing things with me and our kids and the very next day is can be VERY moody--will not speak to us at all and is very irritable.  It seems like this happens every month right before I am about to start. It seems as though it gets worse the older he gets! Is there any kind of medication that he can get from the doctor for this?
<bot>: Hello, The symptoms are indicative of a possibility of mood disorder: bipolar? But to pinpoint the diagnosis one has to interview him in detail to know the reason of his up and down behavior. You may better take him to a psychiatrist and I'm very hopeful that after Chat Doctor. Usually, we use a mod stabilizing agents like sodium vaporware or lithium or oxcarbazepine in such cases depending on several other actors-like presence of hypertension or diabetes or some other comorbid illness.Also, you must get his baseline blood tests like TSH, lipid, liver and kidney, blood counts, ECG test before proceeding for any medicine. Wish you good health
