Better day today. I woke up bright as a button at 4am and still don't don't feel tired, but not hypomanic either. Think it is the fluoxetine. Reduced dose this morning so should be ok. No longer wild and out of control. Much calmer with no thoughts of harming myself. Only problem is stopping Ritalin. My brain just doesn't work and I have a lot of study to do. Coffee just doesn't cut it. Hopefully my brain will adjust to no Ritalin soon and I can get back into study.

Today was my nephew's 11th Bday and all my family came up to hospital to celebrate with me as I have no leave. I am hoping to get leave tonight when i see my pdoc. Still surprised at how quickly I went from wild to stable. Oh well, i will take it. Certainly beats the hell I was going through.
