From what I read about Cyclothymia (I learned something new today, so thank you!) it seemed like it was a milder form of bipoloar disorder. You may have other diagnoses that go along with Cyclothymia. For example, I have bipolar II (milder cycling than bipolar I with less extremes in mania and depression) but I also have Borderline Personality Disorder...which is where a lot of my other issues fit in: my anger, my insecurities, fears of abandoment, self-harm, promiscuity, ED, addictions...Now, by no means am I saying this is you, but you could talk to your doc. Tell him/her about your anger, mood swings, outbursts, etc., and there might be something in addition to the cyclothymia that helps pin it down. And the more you can pin down, the better the treatment you can receive. Hope this is helpful... ~hugs~
