So, my head right now is getting louder and louder with songs playing 24/7 and thinking that someone right next to me is talking to me when really they haven't said anything. I have been up since 5 whatever in the morning and have kept going and going all day. I was out of the house since 9:45am and I got back just after 7pm with still energy left in me. I've done a lot today but it hasn't tired me out and I just had to force feed myself to stay alive and drinking like a goldfish which I usually do drink a lot when I am like this. I have been angry already and this is only just the beginning of a...interesting journey....I only got out of hospital and I don't want to be sent back. I go back to work this Monday coming and I don't want to take more time off sick. But my acute mental health team are telling me not to go to work because of how I am acting right now. I am safe I told them. I agree to disagree with them. That is all.

This may or may have not made any sense what so ever .

So advantages of a manic mind is that I seemly become very active and exercise more. More socialable and having many great ideas/plans for the day so you wont ever get bored. Feeling like you can take on anything and you just jump straight into the deep end of things.

Disadvantages are I end up hearing and seeing things from a lack of sleep, which is frustrating but I just try to ignore it. Uncontrollable anger...it just comes out and you just want to scream and make a scene.

So how to deal with a manic mind?
