when you realize you've been hypomanic. My hypomanic is productive, but erratic. I start stuff not to finish it. I spend money on things I'll never use.I'm getting better at recognizing the signs, but it's still hard for me. Sometimes it seems to be i'm irritable, other times I feel on top of the world. My medicine is "stablizing" in the sense that I'm not sweeping into a deep depression or or manic high, so I really don't want to mess with something that actually (mostly) works. I just need to be more vigilant of my actions and my condition.

Am I right to have the mentality of "if it ain't broke don't fix it" about this? I know how bad I was without his medicine and I just can't handle going there again. I'm afraid of trying to "refine" the recipe.
