My meds suppress my appetite, but when I'm manic I crave chocolate, candy, carbs, caffeine, anything bad for me. I'm bouncing around and saying gimme MORE. So, I know how that is. Depression makes me tend to lose weight, but mania...well, I'm just plain old unhealthy and everything tastes yummy. When I'm studying for college too. I reward myself with food and drinks. I think even non-bipolars do that though.

Hope you can get to feeling better and more able to manage things.
