So, I have been diagnosed with depression and am on meds for it. Since before I started taking the meds, I have been, by and large, depressed. I mean, you know... either sleeping too much or not at all. Having a significantly decreased appetite. Feeling slightly suicidal, etc. You know, just generally unhappy. But sometimes, I get into these, like... jittery/ hyper moods. It's not bi-polar because they really only last for a few hours. But during these things, I'm like, all over the place. Really hyper. I feel awesome about myself. I'm witty, etc. but I can't really focus on anything for too long and I move my legs a lot. I know that it's not "normal" and also that it's not bi-polar. I was wondering if other people suffering from depression experience this or if it's something else.

(Sorry if this post is kind of hard to follow-- I'm posting it because I am currently in one of said hyper/ jittery moods.)
