In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The mood swings may be as harmless as a general annoyance or severe enough that they are keeping the friend up all night. Take notes in a journal to help you identify patterns. You may also be able to spot other factors that may contribute to the mood swings. Some mental illnesses have mood swings as a symptom. Your roommate may be experiencing an undiagnosed psychiatric disorder. Mood swings can be a symptom or even a result of bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, ADHD or even anxiety. Look up the symptoms of each and compare your roommate's behaviors to see if anything fits. Keep in mind, your goal is not to diagnose your roommate. You are simply trying to learn more about his or her behaviors so that you can have a better understanding. See if they have noticed the behavior. Do this discreetly. You might start by asking other friends if they see the moodiness when you aren't around. Finding out can help you understand if it happens all the time or only at home. If it's strictly at home, you may want to consider whether the two of you are well-suited if he or she only acts like this in your presence. If the mood swings are something you have seen occur with other people as well, ask them for suggestions as to how they handled it. "So, you say Terry is moody around you every now and then, too, huh? What do you do when this happens?" Explore how many people in your roommate's family have similar issues and see if there is a pattern as far as mental health issues running in the family. If the mood swings have been interfering with his or her life, it may be a sign of a larger problem. It can be helpful to remind your roommate of the affect his or her mood swings actually has on life for both of you. Your roommate may not notice the issue on a daily basis, so be prepared. You might show compassion by saying "I can see that your mood brings you down some days. It also causes tension between us. Have you thought about seeing a counselor or someone you can talk to professionally?" Volunteer to go to the doctor with your roommate for emotional support.
Summary: Identify patterns of moodiness. Conduct some research. Talk to your roommate's friends and family. Suggest that your roommate see a doctor or counselor.

With your patent in the works, it is a good time to create a working model of your invention. Don't worry about making it with expensive materials or going through an extensive process, just make a version of your invention yourself. You aren't required to make your prototype out of the same materials as your invention would be mass-produced in unless it is absolutely imperative to the creation of your product. If you can't manage to make the prototype on your own, you can pay a company to make one for you. This can get pretty expensive though, so make sure that you always try doing it yourself first. With your patent and prototype in hand, you are on the road to success! The next step is making a presentation that completely covers the bases of your invention. You can use this to show to both potential manufacturers and buyers, although you may create slightly different versions of your presentation for each purpose. Make sure that your presentation is very professional, no matter what way you create it. You can make a PowerPoint, video, or physical presentation-board to show. Use lots of useful information, diagrams, and images. Be sure to cover the specs of your product, uses, and long-term results or benefits. Although it is optional, you could opt to hire a graphic designer to put together a spectacular presentation for your invention. Making it as visually appealing as possible will encourage the interest of manufacturers and buyers alike. Be sure to have your speaking worked out for the presentation as well. It's not enough to have great diagrams and images, you need to be good at public speaking. Don't memorize notecards, but have an idea (with the aid of notes if necessary) of everything you want to say and answers to common questions that may be asked. Find local manufacturers that create products similar to yours and appeal to them to produce your invention for you. You may have to send them an introductory letter, to begin with, explaining who you are and what you want from them. After you hear back from your letter (snail mail or email), get your presentation ready. You will probably have to go present your invention to them and explain what you want from their company. Make sure to leave them with a copy of your presentation and information so that they can review it even after you have left. Emphasize why and how your invention will not only help people but make the manufacturer lots of money. They are business people like you and want to know what they get on their end of the deal if they partner with you. Once you get a manufacturer on board with your invention, start mass-producing it! Although it will probably be best to start in small batches (your manufacturing company will talk to you about this), you can start creating your invention in the hundreds or thousands. You've gotten everything down; your patent, your prototype, a manufacturer, and finally your invention has been mass-produced. Find ways to advertise it to get the maximum selling potential. Meet with local business owners and store managers to discuss selling your product with them. You can show your presentation to explain why doing so is a great option for their business in addition to helping a local entrepreneur. Create advertisements for your invention. Invest the help of a local graphic designer to create pictures and videos that have people begging to buy your product! Find ways to show your advertisement in your area. Many newspapers, TV stations, and local radio stations are all able to advertise your product for a small fee. Spread the word among your friends and family. Getting the people you're closest with onboard with your idea will help to get word of your invention out and about into new communities and populations. Hold local information sessions and booths and entrepreneurial conferences and business fairs. Look into the cost of having a booth to advertise your product at conventions near you. It helps to make a detailed drawing of the product.

Problem: Article: A red flag is anything that could be a potential problem in the future. It's easy to get caught up in the romance, but it might be best to take a step back and evaluate the person you are seeing for who they really are. Try thinking about all of the things that you know about them, and make note of anything that is questionable. If he says he's not ready for commitment, and that is something you are looking for, you should believe him and not try to change his mind. Red flags can also be things like a short temper, tumultuous relationships in his past, or indications of a substance abuse problem. Since you're looking for a strong relationship, you should take your time getting to know them. The longer you spend with them, the better an idea you will have of who they really are. Don't feel like you need to rush into something just because it feels good. One of the most exciting and fun parts of dating is getting to experience new things together. Pay attention to how your partner reacts to different situations and ask yourself if you're comfortable with the way they handle different stressors or uncomfortable environments. For example, holidays are sometimes very high-stress situations and environments for people. How your partner acts in this environment might be a sign of how they'll react in other high-stress situations. If you begin to feel uncomfortable, uneasy, or afraid in your relationship, don't be afraid to leave immediately. Your partner should never threaten, hurt, or ignore you. Confide in someone you trust and cut all ties with anyone who is unhealthy for your mental and physical health.
Summary:
Look for and notice red flags. Take your time getting to know him. Spend time with him in a variety of environments. Say "no" when you need to.
