Default Mood swings

Hi everybody,
Do you guys get serious mood swings all day? Like one hour I feel ok and like I can cope today and then an hour later I am so depressed I am having to talk myself out of suicide. I was more even until my doctor added clonazepam for REM sleep behavior disorder. I sleep mostly through the night now but when these mood problems hit I can't go take a nap and reset my brain like I used to do cause I cannot take naps now that I am sleeping through the night mostly. How do you guys cope with this? Things have been especially bad for me since I had a seizure a few weeks ago. I am having way more problems being able to concentrate on anything for more than a few minutes. Can't read, watch t.v, computer is hard. Can only do these things for very short periods. I am going to go crazy. I used to at least be able to nap, watch t.v, read, computer. Please help anyone. I am going to go cry for a while now. I am so frustrated.
Thanks for listening and caring.
