It might be time to reach out to your doctor to see about getting back on meds. Hypomania can morph into full blown mania and even psychosis quickly. It may feel good now, but so many of us have major regrets from the things we did while manic. I'd give anything to go back in time and do something about my episode when it was ramping up and before it went too far. Please be careful.

Thank you  I felt a bit better after at least putting it out there that Im not doing great. I have now told my H because you are right. Im not manic but Im higher than I am when i am just well. I also left a message for the pdoc. Im still drinking today but decided at least taking my meds would be right. So i took them and decided I would take more seroquel tonight if i dont hear back from her. I love how I feel but i know its not right and losing my family scares me. This ends with me in a cell and then hospital or worse if I dont stop it now before I get completely out of control and I cant have that.
