I agree. It's incredibly frustrating, and even more so when the doctors don't seem to have a handle on what's going on. I find it really hard to accept myself, much less to explain to the bazillion people around me who don't understand what's going on.
Emotional lability (mood swings) is also a symptom of PCS, so that can bring on some of the strong emotions like anger.
If the strong emotions concern you, you could also ask about a more typical antidepressant like Prozac or Celexa.
