I have always had terrible mood swings I also have depression. About the past two years I have noticed my patience are nearly gone. I have deep lows where I cannot get out of bed, I physically hurt throughout my body. I have angry outbursts sometimes out the blue or triggered by something little. My anxiety is through the roof. I haven’t been able to go to church or enjoy activities I used to love.I think the diagnosis scared me sh*#less and I have become afraid o any and everything.I have no motivation and struggle daily to accomplish daily tasks. My poor kids tell me they miss playing with me and doing fun things, it breaks my heart I just can’t bring myself to do it or I do go have fun with them and end up in bed for days. I have always had angry outbursts but chalked it up to spinal meningitis I had as a small child. Just like I thought my depression and mood swings were hereditary. Which they could be but seeing as the frontal lobe is affected, it may be the avm. I don’t know. I am so sorry to hear you are struggling as I am with these issues, your wife is a saint as is my hubby I’m sure!! Good luck I will be praying for you 
He will not give us more than we can handle!
