Yes yes and yes! Wow put into words things I thought I could never explain. I can't tell where it's anxiety disorder or elevated energy level, your pdocs description is finally one that I feel like that makes the bpII dx finally make sense to me. I seriously can't leave bed for days or who knows how long, not even enough energy to shower or get my son to school and other times I'm having crying spells and irritable and anxious and sometimes it's mixed like much needed extra energy, insomnia, chattiness, mind racing bright ideas which at any moment could turn into torment wanting to pull my hair out even trying to pull it out. And I get that anxiety swirling pit of stomach feeling so too much... I've heard they've found cells like brain cells in the stomach area, leytons cells I recall, I wonder if that has anything to do with it? It's a mind-stomach confounding wrenching trip! Time for another half klonopin and Bach sleep remedy and lavendar lotion for me, I need to sleep! The rapid cycling is ultra confusing too... Ughh! Up down left right and how about all at the same time... Damn I don't like rollercoasters.
