I'm still around, just feeling quiet. There's no news in my bipolar. I am still steady on mild depression. I oversleep and overeat. I'm a recluse except for taking my dog out. I toyed with going back to competitive Scrabble, but the emotions are too intense so i quit. I discovered this amusing mode of playing on my phone in a cheesy silly app called Scrabble Go. I just play against the AI set really low so i win every game and don't get angry.

It was a rare cool Summer day here and i went out with no hat for the first time in months. I shaved my head in Winter when i got mad at it and it grows super slow. Now it looks like i just have a far-too-short haircut, but it's not horrifying like it was.

Glad you're feeling good @Blueberrybook and it sounds like you're doing what you can to keep a lid on it and not let it get out of control. When i'm hypomanic i also try hard to modulate my mood but after a certain point i just don't care, it's such a relief to feel good for once. Hope you can avoid that fate.
