For that binge, it was undermining my stability, even though I was feeling no pain and kind of felt I'd found a new solution. 
The best thing I did was to admit my binge to my pdoc; he adjusted my meds in response.

To answer both questions I don't know if it is to be honest. I think it's just a recurring theme for me. I usually feel really bad after drinking, but the last two times I haven't. I have actually really enjoyed myself. So is it that bad or am I just making excuses?
I think I am keeping the mania away by adding the depressant but I think that can be done with a med adjustment rather than me drinking.

You're right! I have been battling it a long time, so it's like a recurring binge? Is there such a thing? I don't know, all I know is that I can't stop. I am not drinking every day, but I still over do the wine and beer when I do. Also, I haven't hit the hard liquor because I am really scared to go that route.
