How did it go setting an appointment, toolesque?
Hear you on the depressive part. It's the exact same for me. And on the hypomanic side, I get very impatient and irritable too. Sometimes triggers are hard to identify...and let's face it, sometimes episodes are a brain shift with no real trigger. But! Being able to identify triggers is a great tool in being able to get a better grasp on the ones that are more controllable. For me, I've found I can better recognize signs of the manic-y ones that will really set me off into rage, and that has really helped lessen the frequency (well, that and the meds for sure!) For example, doing a self-quarantine, trying to avoid say, grocery shopping (where everyone will annoy the **** out of me), or trying not to push through tasks that are getting me worked up. Doesn't always work, but it's definitely helped.
