Maybe I'll discuss my irritability, as I've been having highs combined with outbursts, although I am not experiencing that today. It's hard to come up with examples, because time passes, and then I forget about it when I am no longer in that state of mind. Plus, I am more "on the go," maybe due to being a bit hypo, so I feel it is interfering with my productivity. I'm debating whether I should continue therapy or not. I tend to respond more to it when I hit a low, and I know that will eventually happen, but it's just a matter of when.

I certainly wouldn't tell you to stay in therapy if you don't want to. I will remind you that when we're up is the time when we sometimes believe we no longer need a connection with mental health support. Then, like you said, down hits, and we're floundering. I look at staying in therapy when I'm not feeling that I need it kind of like money in the bank. You've invested, so that when you do need it, it's there to use.
