I am on pred taper, reducing by 5 mg every week. Last few day, my moods are up in morning,feel hyper but by evening I feel anxious and low. Is it normal while you are coming off steroids .. My colitis symptoms are gone. But this mood thing is kicking my ass. Friends,do you have any suggestions or advice?

I am down to 10 mg a day of Predni and My mood swings are much less now. So, I guess, these were Prednisone induced side effects. I am starting Mesalamine tomorrow. Continuing with Turmeric,Boswellia, Probiotic , aloe vera gel and flax seed oil caps.
The goal is to take minimum effective dose of Mesalamine with the help of Natural spices and herbs etc.
