I'm wondering if it's common to feel extra up after quitting? I've heard of the pink cloud theory and I experienced that too. This is different. It comes and goes between being so excited I'm shaking to bawling my eyes out for no reason.

I'm aware that I should expect mood swings when coming off booze but am wondering if it's normal to feel so excited I could burst. I've taken on many other things lately too. Painting like crazy, knitting, decorating, planning an entire wedding anniversary single handedly, cleaning, ideas flying, drove an hour for a sponge and canvas. Stuff like that. Oh and I used to sleep 8-9 hours. Now with a sleep aid I get 4-5.

Sober a little over a month, dx'd with cyclothymia a few years ago.
