Since leaving hospital I was great for a few days then fell into exhaustion after maybe overdoing it. In the last couple of days I have become very agitated. It is unsettling as I start work tomorrow and feel anything but ready for it. Will have to medicate myself to get through I think. Generally feeling low and anxious. My T said this is common after long episodes and to take it easy as I can but also engage in life as much as possible. Today I was so irritable I nearly bit my Dad's head off even though he was trying to help me with a technology problem. I just didn't have the patience for it. Scared I am falling into another episode already, a mixed one. Just hope it passes quickly and I can get back into a semi-normal life.
