I'm not sure how to handle this any more. I'm really tired all the time but my body wants to do things, only that even after a short walk I collapse. I must say that about a month ago I collapsed after getting quite manic over essays and taking up project upon project, but after 2-3 weeks of collapse I started losing it. I get weird sensations like the ground is a lot further away from me, then like it is really close up to my knees, or that my head becomes one with the ground if I lie down and of course I haven't escaped the racing thoughts and remembering the most random things and piecing bits together to make sense of this and that (even if it means jumping over years, even countries in my time-stream.) But at the same time, I can't say I am in that 'bouncing off the walls' state - no. I sit quietly while my brain feels like it's trying to escape from my head. I get very uncomfortable very easily in my chair, bed, sofa, and fabrics irritate me, I get strange itches and all, but all that leads into is a silent tantrum that is so unbearable sometimes I wish I could have a proper tantrum, even if it meant I would exhaust myself even more. And of course then there is the limited number of things I can do. Everything triggers a whole set of imaginary scenarios and things I could be doing, investing in etc etc. I think I live very much in my head and yet not at all. I can communicate with people but it feels almost surreal. Oh. And the other bizarre thing. Apart from a streak of 4 days with little sleep, I sleep 7 hrs at night. Sometimes I fall asleep during the day. What IS going on??
