Knowing this elevation is temporary, can you exploit it as an opportunity to move toward some sort of goal? That goal may require several "bounds," each bound broken by depressive lows.
Do you have a goal that permits reaching it by bounds rather than constant, sustained efforts?
As artificial as you may feel your lifted spirits are, may you enjoy and employ them.  |
Hey there, thank you for your help.
The med trial is limited to six months because that's what my T had recommended, but I can't have it for over 1 year, because of health concerns related to overuse of the medicine.
I can exploit this elevation to move towards a goal, but I don't seem to be making any progress, hence the depressed feelings. However, I do not have a bound-based goal system, so that may help. I'll have to talk to my T about that.
