How long have you not been your normal/former self?
I have been like this for a few months, possibly longer in some sort of mild mania.

I can't see a therapist, as badly as I want to, because I have no income and don't qualify for Medicaid where I live. In other words, I am poor and stuck unless I can get a job and pay for it myself.

That's what brought me here. And the fact that I think my friends and family are tired of hearing me like this. Theres noone else to talk to.
