I am so sorry you are experiencing hypomania.


Mirapex may have caused this or may have simply contributed to a swing you were going to have anyway.


I forget whether or not you are on a mood stabilizer and I cannot see if you have listed meds while I am on this screen. I imagine you are on a mood stabilizer.


Contacting your pdoc was/is a very wise move! I hope s/he gets back to you soon!


Do you have any meds which might be helpful in countering the mood swing?


I think you know this, however, we can get involved in things which support the hypomanic state, as in certain types of music, an overly stimulating environment, bright lights, etc.


I have read it can be very helpful to darken the room and keep the space quiet. I know this can be very difficult while hypo. Maybe find some calming music?


The activities/topics which highly interest you right now may need to be halted, or modified. If so, and if possible, place obstacles in the way of following through on any of the the compulsions you feel are somehow unhealthy and/or might potentially do damge to you, your life, even your relationships with others.


I am having trouble with thoughts and with words right now, due to fatigue/pain. My writing is not very clear here. I am sorry I cannot be of more help to you. I think a lot of you and hope all goes as well as possible. I have been, and I remain, very hopeful for you and for your "recovery."


Maybe get very busy with productive activities in order to distract you from other activities you'd rather not get involved in today.?


I think it is very wise of you to reach out here, too.

It appears your judgment is intact, which is very helpful to you at this time!


We are here for you! I hope you hear from your pdoc asap!
