I am only a nurse not a Dr. but what u describe sounds very much like bipolar to me. If you think it is needed get a second opinion. Personally, I would not be afraid of lithium, it is not as "bad" as people think. It is an old school med. but I have known people who did well with it. Seroquel is good for mood swings and is known to help with anger. I would not accept the idea that u are just one of those people unhappy people. There is so much that can be done to help manage your symptoms. Talk to your Dr. and be open to his treatment suggestions. Without my meds my quality of life would be pretty bad. Take care of u, Kerry
