I think I'm experiencing a mixed episode, but I'm not quite sure. I don't think I've ever had one before. I guess the best way to describe what I'm feeling is I have depression with ambition. My thought patterns are like when I'm depressed, I don't want to do anything, I don't want to go to work, I don't want to do anything really. However, I can't seem to hardly sit still. I want to be up and doing stuff but I don't want to actually do anything. I'm extremely irritable, which is usually a manic symptom for me. I also think I have a half dozen half done projects I tried to start this week, but like I said, I don't want to actually do anything, I just don't want to sit still either. So could this be a mixed episode, or is that just something else I'm imagining today?
