Hi everyone. These past two days have been alright. The weekend went really fast, as usual. I was able to get a couple of walks in, which is good because I most likely won't be able to get a walk in tomorrow or Tuesday.

One whoops moment I had is, both yesterday and today, I had some caffeine induced hypomanic symptoms. Mainly, just feeling the bipolar buzz I get when manic/hypomanic. A little irritability and restlessness too. I really do have to be careful because, when I mainly experience the bipolar buzz, my brain always wants to keep it going every day. But, in reality, I hope it doesn't trigger a longer stretch of symptoms, especially a depressive crash afterwards. I see my pdoc Tuesday so I can always talk to him about it then if the hypomanic symptoms haven't gone away. I'd probably just take an extra 12.5 mg for a couple of days to see if that helps. Oh, as I type this I realize I also had some sympoms triggered earlier in the week by caffeine. I better be careful about how much caffeine I'm drinking this week.

It's state testing this week, so a long week for teachers and students. Teachers are going to get some goodies because it's testing week so I'm excited for those. Last year, they came around with a cart that had snacks, sparkling water, and soda. The kids are given some breakfast type snacks as they arrive to school too.
