I was wondering though: how does a hypomanic state affect your appetite? Because I don't want to eat. It's nearly 2PM where I am and I've been to busy with racing thoughts to think about food!
Mood states definitely affect my appetite, particularly hypomanic/mixed manic. It’s not so much of not being hungry, more that I can’t think of anything to eat that doesn’t gross me out. I’ve been mixed for about 10 days and have been eating “safe” foods like fruit, cereal, cinnamon bread, etc. I’m starting to settle into depression and am eating a little better. Depression usually makes me want to comfort eat.
