Hi! How are you doing?

Sleeping, taking meds, happy. That sounds great, IMO.

Spouses irritate each other. Be more patient (sometimes they are so slow etc). Watch a movie with her, dinner out. Surprise her with flowers. Intimacy. Don't go overboard...just be mindful that you're irritable to her of late and be kind. And a romantic thing. Just one. Etc.

Facebook- I know FB would be trouble for me because of my OCD, so I don't have an account. Here's your test, IMO, on whether to call your doc. Totally stay off FB for a few days. Don't log in. Don't post. Post here, lol.

If you can't stay off FB and people find your postings odd...just ask if you'd want it published on the front page of the paper. No? Then don't post. For a few days. Don't post "retracting" the "odd" posts. Just stay off it for a bit.

If you haven't spent tons of money recklessly, hired "escort" girls, done street drugs, shoplifted, driven dangerously, almost booked a one-way ticket to Belize, bought a boat, started an amazing business venture that came to you suddenly, texting/calling your phone contact list at all hours ...no? New car in the garage? No? Think hard. If no, you're good. =P

If you haven't done that or almost done that ^....and can stay off FB, sleep, and take your meds? I'd say why fix happy. Thinking about buying that yacht via a second mortgage versus actually doing so....thinking is fine, your actions count.

"Normal" people act like ____ on FB and are irritatable with their spouse (it's marriage lol).

I've had reckless manic episodes...you're not exhibiting reckless behavior based on your post. Just my opinion.

You're on a mood stabilizer, I hope? Lamictal is great for me. Just FYI, a therapeutic dose of Seroquel for many is in the range of 800 mg. I'm guessing it's for sleep. I take Lamictal as my mood stabilizer and Geodon for mania and psychosis.

My two cents. Have a great day. If all hell breaks loose, go to the ER. You're good. xo
Thanks for this!
