For a while I was in a depression phase and have seemed to come out of it in the last few weeks. I can't tell if I'm just feeling "normal" or heading into a manic phase.

My energy is way up, but I still get tired and my mood fluctuates a little. I've been having trouble falling asleep because my thoughts are racing and I feel like I have a little ball of energy inside of me that needs to get out.

I don't know how I feel anymore. I don't know what's normal and what's not. My psychiatrist wants to put me on Lithium to help with the depression part of my bipolar (which is definitely the worst part of it and most debilitating).

Thanks.
