strong mood swings at 3 and a half months sober.

I took the extreme mood swings of early sobriety as normal because I had experienced them so often before but I have never been sober this long before and am shocked at the strength of the feelings I get sometimes.
I get hit by really strong despair suddenly for no reason, on average my moods are good and this depression/despair can hit in the best of moods.
I have to fight it hard because if I let the feeling carry on it could drag me under but it is very draining.

I hope its 'normal'.
