I talked to the doctor and he didn't sound too concerned, but I read somewhere that seratonin-inhibitor drugs (or whatever they're called) like this can mess you up, so now I'm scared.

Mess you up in what way? I doubt it very much. That is a seratonin-inhibitor drug. That means it doesn't deplete your seratonin levels to where you get depressed. My guess is that there may have been a few days where you didn't take the same amount each time, that would explain the dancing freely days and the I'm so sad I could cry days. Or it could be explained by what you did the night before, did you drink alcohol? Don't worry about a thing, you'll be alright. Those mood swings are explainable.
