I have no idea what the heck is going on with me.
I had to call my pdoc today, because my hydroxyzine doesn't really take the anxiety edge off, and the xanax puts me down like a rhino tranq. So I'm waiting to hear back on potential alternatives.
Anyone else ever experience weird cycles like this?

Glad you seem on the way up now, swimmer.
Yeah, I am right now in a qualitatively identical situation, basically. Three days ago, I had a five-hour blip of nearly frank mania. High as a freaking kite with euphoria. Just insanely high. Nothing bad happened. But, dangerous for me, based on history.
Next day, spent maybe 6-8 hours or so beyond sad and hopeless. Just awful. Nearly tearful, which happens fewer than one time per year. Nothing happened to prcipitate this, No sad news, nothing bad. Just my brain. Finally, slept some, sleep has been off for a few days after being quite good for many days previously. So, after thar pretty good sleep, feeling euthymic most of today.
So, I am clearly all over the freaking map. No idea. No recent med shifts. Dunno. Dunno.
