I had a mixed manic episode the last few days, it felt hypomanic at first. It was probably from not taking my lithium regularly. Yesterday it was my sister's birthday and family was there and I was hiding in my old bedroom and out in the garage because everyone made me so irritable. It sucked. I hate the feeling. Wouldn't wish it on anyone. I was also somewhat suicidal. I feel much better now, stable. I'm not taking my lithium sporadically anymore. I'm hoping that I stay stable. Ugh, well that's just bipolar life I guess.
