I think that I might be doing a little rapid cycling. Went a little hypomanic last night then back to depressed this morning. I talked to my mom about it this morning and she didn't understand. I started yelling at her about my condition. (Unusual for me in a stable condition, I'm not the yelling kind.) She basically walked away. I apologized for the outburst but I am a little worried about this state. Might have to call p-doc. Ugh.

I think calling your p-doc would be the best right now. Sounds like you need it.

Yup - I was there a few days ago. Even yesterday I snapped so bad at my bf that he nearly kicked me out.
99% sure I'm in a (hypo)manic state... not sure what to do. I don't really get like this. I'm a BP II sufferer, and generally it's the depression I battle with. But started new meds on Monday and now not sure what to do. The anxiety is gone (yay for the meds!!) but almost think i need to take a clonazepam to calm myself down. I feel I could start dancing and carrying on, on my desk at work. I feel wired (A good "wired" though!) iPod is on full blast with rave/club type music and it's 10:30AM. Gee, we have got to love ourselves because I'm sure not many others out there will - we are just so SPECIAL AND UNIQUE!! |

Sounds like rapid cycling. Call your pdoc and be honest about what is going on and maybe they can make medication adjustments over the phone without you having to make another visit. Not likely but always possible.

Was recommended to up dosage of lithium. Seems to be working. I was feeling so depressed it hurt. Feeling a bit more stable now though I slept most of the day today and ruined a perfectly good day off in the process. Oh well, I kind of had to pay the price for only sleeping three hours the day before, not going to do that again if at all possible. Anyway, thanks for all the support.

a day off is more than in order at times; especially if you are going thro a med adjustment.
Glad you're doing better, just keep on like you are! |
