I've been in a partial hospitalization program for 15 days now and i'm confused. I've been diagnosed with mood disorder NOS, but also mixed episoded with obsessive features. Right now i'm not manic, and from what i've learned in partial, i don't get traditional symptoms of mania or hypomania. When my brain races it will go for a day and then i'm able to sleep it off.

I feel strain in the brain. I went a couple of days feeling at peace while practicing the mindfulness talked about in dialectical behavioral therapy. But today my mind started racing, yet i didn't feel impulsive, excited, manic, hypomanic, depressed, delusional, psychotic, but maybe just obsessive.

Can anyone relate? I feel that with all the medication i'm on that i wouldn't be getting these flare-ups that have caused me to adjust meds a bunch of times since last August. I also feel all alone because i don't fit into any individual mental health category. What's the name of the pain?

Thanks everybody.
