I am hypomanic. I had three hours of high quality sleep last night, woke up at 2 am from hunger and... Has been awake ever since. It is almost 10 pm.

It was all fun and I was suddenly super engaged, effective and passionate at work. I bet people did not understand why I was suddenly in every convo, exuberant and getting things done in a split second.

Now I am tired of it and need to quash hypomania before it becomes something worse. And it is not fun anymore. I want to be asleep already. I am not sleepy but I want to be asleep

This night, I will be using Thorazine as a rescue medicine, a PRN.

Alas, I now suspect that the sudden drop in daily calories over the past two weeks might have been due not to a higher dose of Naltrexone but to starting hypomania. Time will show
