Please give it awhile...it’ll soon become normal.
Yeah, I miss the mania too much...sigh...but I don’t have a lot of motivation either. Just feel so-so. I know it’s best and definitely what my family needs especially as I have a 10 year old daughter, and she needs me functioning, not in bed all day depressed or wildly spending money we don’t have. Some days it’s just so HARD though.
