I've had this issue i've been on and off drugs for 6-7years now.... I recently got clean, about 3 weeks ago now. Well my doctor diagnosed me with bipolar, which i can believe, either that or bpd, or both. But i never felt TOO bad or out control while sober and clean. So i decided not to take meds, and my therapist agrees until i've had a decent amount of clean time. I do feel manic and depressed at times, but nothing that is too much to handle. My really bad moments are always while under the influence. So for now i'm just going to focus on sobriety and wait to see how i am. I did find i had some high energy and confidence yesterday and worked out for about 3-4 hours and was also quick to snap at people. I never really have the sleep issues that seem to come with mania though, i like my 8 hours when possible. I also never seem too depressed to exercise, if anything it motivates me in a way.
