As far as lithium goes, it's never given me energy but everyone's different I suppose. Good luck and get some rest. I hope you come down smoothly! Hugs.
I know I should be worried about the crash but I'm not, which I guess is another sign I'm hypomanic. My boyfriend says I have been since yesterday, but I didn't realize it. As for AP's, I was prescribed saphris a few weeks ago but I had a very bad reaction to it: severe restless legs, major anxiety, and insomnia. My pdoc concluded that I'm sensitive to AP's since I was also on risperadal years ago. I don't remember what it did, but it wasn't anything positive.

I know I should get rest but I really, really don't want to sleep. I've been working on a project the whole day and I've gotten so much done. I've been up for 36 or 37 hours now going on the little sleep I mentioned in my original post
