Not sure what I'm experiencing here. So I'm not sure where to post it!

I have had DAYS of really excessive activity. Cleaning out the garage, cleaning the insides of the kitchen cabinets, exercising, getting caught up on registration forms for autism camps for my son, etc., etc., etc., etc. For a while, I felt like "wow! I'm getting a lot done!". Today that feeling is still there - I feel wound up, my heart is beating fast - but I'm tired of cleaning, etc. so I'm just left with this FEELING.

I always thought of it as anxiety. Maybe it's some kind of mania? What's the difference? I don't even know if it matters. But I feel stuck like this and it's really uncomfortable. I do have panic attacks and obsessive thoughts - so I know anxiety is an issue for me (I have PTSD) - but this isn't really associated with anything "bad" - just an "out of control" feeling.

I have xanax. Is this an appropriate time to take it? I always think to take it when I'm feeling BAD. This does feel bad, but in a different way. (I know no one here is a dr - just curious about other people's experiences)

Thanks for any words of wisdom
