Hi all,
I was just wondering what some of your triggers are? In the past mine has been hypomania which turned into insomnia which turned into full blown mania/psychosis. I was able to identify this early last Dec and voluntarily scheduled to check myself into the hospital the day after Christmas but ended up going into full blown mania on Christmas eve! Lately, I've been under a lot of stress and anxiety with my dad (he's about to be on the streets due to mania spending and eviction) and I have a roommate who is a drunk. Both bring out the worst in me. I get very upset and mean (down right *****!). I guess the easy option would be to give the roommate notice so I've been hinting at that with him when I express how he makes me feel when he gets drunk. He isn't listening to me and its as though he likes to argue. I think I will give him notice Oct 1st. He will be out of town all this week. Long story short, it's make me very stressed and anxious and irritated and impatient. Is this a trigger that can push me into mania/psychosis? Or is it mainly just hypomania?
