Yes, the phrase "like a human yo-yo" is a metaphor. A metaphor is a figure of speech that makes a comparison between two unlike things, stating that one thing is another. In this case, the phrase is comparing a person's behavior or emotions to the up-and-down motion of a yo-yo, emphasizing the person's fluctuating or unpredictable nature.
