Oh, fear of jinxing, you tell me! I have not had mania OR hypomania in the last six months. In the six months preceding that period, I had three manias and a couple of hypomanias, which made me rapid cycling. My combo contains 6 meds and I am still fighting morning sedation and apathy but I will start swimming in the heated outside pool as soon as it gets at least a bit warmer and that should energize me. I have never been free of mania for that long since falling ill. I cannot believe it. My doctor wrote "partial remission" in his last note. Partial, but remission.

Ani, I am really happy to learn that your weight came off. I am hoping that with exercise mine will follow suit.
