Thanks everyone! I had yesterday and today to relax and catch up on housework so I'm feeling better tonight. I had a very long, frustrating week full of mania, mixed episodes, a lack of sleep and a rough therapy session (trauma issues) which brought on flashbacks and more nightmares. I was extremely irritable which is why I mostly stayed away; I didn't want to go off on someone here for spelling a word wrong or something LOL. I'm still a bit irritable and tired but my mood seems to have stabalized for the most part. I start with my new pdoc in less than 2 weeks, but I don't think a med overhaul will be needed; I think a lot of this was from stress. I was trying to do too many things and I need to cut back a bit. New T, new support group, new friend, sessions with my peer support specialist, plus the added fun of having several dentist appointments to get my cavities filled (after you read this post - GO FLOSS!! ). So I went from staying home almost all the time to going out 3 or more times a week and it was overload.

Thanks again for the concern and support. You are all great people!
