I love this post. I'm depressed right now, so it is good for me to remember that I won't be depressed forever and they hypo will return.

For me it feels like the dark clouds over my brain give way to the most gorgeous sun. Regardless of the actual weather, in my head it is perfect. I feel so optimistic, so hopeful, like anything is possible. Music sounds better, hugs feel better, sex is definitely better. I have so many great ideas and I want to do so many things. Time flies by. This is the opposite of being depressed for me where the hours of the day go by so slowly that it is very hard for me to get through the day.

When hypo, I look up at the clock and wonder where the time has gone. My energy is unlimited. Occasionally the euphoria gives way to severe agitation. Sadly my family feels the brunt of this. When I am depressed I don't care if my kids are messy, but when hypo I yell at them for leaving food out, etc. The world seems to be moving in slow motion and I get frustrated by that. But over all….everything is just better and God is very close to me, like I can reach out and touch him.
