*raises hand* Yep, over here! I have not been on meds long and they are stepping me up to working dose. Before I did not have this much irritability. But now I got Depressed-irritable and hypomanic-irritable. My girlfriend wants to strangle me. I am fortunate at work I can lock myself in my cube and plug in my earbuds and just drown everything out. Not so lucky at home. That's where the paranoia sets in (I keep thinking my gf is trying to control me which can not be further from the truth) and I get cranky with her. I try to limit contact but she is at the end of her rope and needs some affection from me to keep going. Not easy to do when I'm an irritable prick.
