Having just gone through my first major episode, I can truly sympathise with your confusion and disorientation. It scared my friends, it scared me.

I tried to figure out what triggered me, and then held on for the ride. It was all I could manage.

As squirrel said, try to do something to take your mind off it as much as possible. I ended up sleeping a lot when I came down and hit the depression mode.

My bipolar is usually very mild, and this was so foreign to me. If you can talk to a rt person who has been there, it usually helps . It depends on the person.

As squirrel said, it will pass. That is the great key to remember. It will pass.

My best to you,

January
