Do any of you pace, or pace for very extended periods of time?

I have worn a pattern in the lawn from pacing, I have paced for so many hours of the day that when I wake up my legs are in some serious pain. Last two days I have been doing nothing but pacing, my mood is manic, mixed, manic still.

I don't know what is making me pace, could be that I'm agitated ( I don't feel severely agitated) , could be that my thoughts have mostly turned into racing fractions of thoughts? I don't know, but I am not getting anything done at all all day long except a good leg workout It's distressing me because last time I did a marathon paces I ended up pacing hospital corridors. I really want to do other things, like the dishes and such but I can't seem to stand still for more than 2 minutes. And the pacing is mindless motion accomplishing nothing.

Please tell me I am not the only one that does this.....Is this common bipolar behavior, or maybe a coping thing... I've been at it for years, but it's really driving me nuts, when I am a "normal" me I don't pace (except when on the phone)

Today I have paced for apx. 13 hours WTH?? How do you stop doing it? Mind over matter isn't working.

Ughh It's 5 am, I'm going to go attempt to weed my garden and see if I can manage, sleep time has come and gone, it's extremely quiet.
