Getting things done is great. However, the anxiety and irritability can get me into trouble as can the tendency to over commit to things. I take on more than I can handle during these times, then when I come down I am completely overwhelmed and let a lot of people down. Fortunately have learned to recognize the signs early but sometimes it sneaks up on me. I had to learn better interpersonal skills to help keep relationships in tact and has really been beneficial. I just wish sometimes it didn't happen in the first place; have also learned to accept it and manage as best that I can.
