When I get mixed it tends to spiral down rapidly then I get very suicidal and end up in hospital. In hospital they adjust my meds and it tends to ease within a month. Mixed is the worst. So uncomfortable. I get racing thoughts, sleep problems, severe agitation, irritability, moods swinging from mania to depression, unable to tolerate things being slow like cars, computers, walkers in front of me or people not getting to the point. I need things to move fast to keep up with my mind and agitation. This tends to annoy those around me. In worst cases I get paranoid and delusional. Sometimes it comes and I manage it and it passes but most times I end up IP for my own safety. Take care.
