What does it mean when someone is nice one minute and rude the next?


Question Posted Thursday July 24 2014, 8:29 pm

I'm wondering what is wrong with a certain person: mentally, (obviously); or, psychologically, as a psych-professional would call it... . This guy's name is Gerald, and he's either got an attitude problem, or; something is definitely wrong with him, mentally: he's nice one minute: laughing & joking with everyone and, then goes evil the next, and he's all angry - as I can tell by looking at his facial expression. What's wrong with him?

You can call it being moody, or being a jerk, or just being temperamental.

If there is an underlying mental health issue, that is none of business unless he chooses to share that with you.

Your observations are not nearly enough to base any sort of diagnosis on. Also, what you've described doesn't fit the bill of bi-polar at all.

We are not doctors, and I doubt you are either, so we have no business trying to diagnose his mental state. It's actually very, very rude and irresponsible to assign labels like that to people. Throwing out labels, when you aren't a doctor and that person is not your patient, is just a nasty kind of name-calling.

If you don't like someone, don't hangout with them.
If you don't feel safe around someone, definitely don't hang out with them.

Bi-polar? Or maybe borderline personality disorder.
