Hello and welcome to EmpowHer
First of all, I want to say how sorry I am to hear of your situation.
Mood swings can definitely be a side effect of going off birth control pills. Since your wife took the pills for so many years her body could be struggling to recover from the lack of supplemental hormones. I highly suggest she see a doctor to analyze her hormonal health, if she is willing.
Below I have pasted a link to a HER article the talk more about the side effects of coming off the pill.
