I was hypomanic and the night before slept for only 3 hours. I realized that I was hypomanic, took what for me is a high dose of Thorazine, even though it was only 5% of the FDA-approved max dose of that drug, took a little more (the smallest dose of it) in the middle of the night, and all in all slept for 12 hours net.
No hypomania anymore.
Thorazine is amazing. Kudos to the people who invented it in the middle of last century and to my psychiatrist who prescribed it in 2022, having spent a long time gently suggesting to me that I try it. Ad that time, I thought that nothing by Zyprexa would ever work.
