BPII. When hypomanic, I tend to feel very much on edge. I work hard to hide it. I feel overwhelmed by noise, by scents, by light, by other people talking and more!
I lose more sleep and I eventually get to where I have difficulty cognitively, due to the severity of the insomnia.

I am not much of a spender. Once in awhile, I might buy something I am not otherwise very likely to buy. I always wonder what I was thinking when I had bought the item .. or.. I may not recall even buying it. This has happened but has been rare.

In the past 6 weeks, I have started buying, every day. Lol. I have found a company which allows people to order items by placing a small deposit on the items. Items must be returned or paid for by the end of 30 days. I can order a lot and have it sent to my home. without needing much cash/credit. If I keep too much, I could be in trouble.
I have never done anything like this before. My pdoc thinks this may be caused more by MIrapex than by hypomania. My other symptoms do not suggest hypo.
We do not know, for sure, what is causing this change in behavior. It has been harmless so far; I hope it stays harmless.

I have done a few other things when hypomanic. I'd rather not disclose in this forum right now.
Love to ALL
