sorry - i don't do the mania thing, until this weekend, and now today.
I think I need someone to talk to me to keep me occupied, as I may start becoming a freak. Sitting behind my desk, trying not to hum, hoping the music isn't too loud to irritate the others...
Tapping my foot...
Do u think a Clonazepam will slow me down? Starting to feel my body getting somewhat tired, which is a good thing...!

[Skully]

So how are things going overall? I'll talk to you any day! So, what do you want to talk about?

[sugahorse1]

i'm open to anything. preferably something that can keep my concentration. thinking i need to find a website with puzzles or do soduko..? maybe solve world peace?
I'm bouncing at my desk - this is NOT me. but not complaining. was however hoping i could divert this energy into solving any issues we have within our company (South African Walmart) by digging through data, but... nope... no concentration.
well, I am now becoming a strong advert for Molipaxin (Trazodone)- anyone out there suffering from insomnia and depression - this is your drug!!
Whoop whoop

[sugahorse1]

How are things going generally..? Well, boyfriend has been lectured all weekend on how to love and treat me (Yay for hypomania - we feel indestructible and are able to tell the world how it WILL be done, ) Kept myself busy, loved the soccer - GERMANY all the way.
need to spend some time thinking about T, what i want out of it, and how to address it... watched horse racing, but now thinking I need to get back into riding, so sort of Window shopping (Which is ridiculous, as I should just be patient and wait for one of ours to retire..) But I want one - NOW!

Well, let's see, things in general. I'll tell you about my weekend from hell. I got really upset on Saturday and punched a wall resulting in a hand fracture so I have a cast on now. Yesterday I was feeling down so I decided to take my mind off things and go clean out my garage. I found a tarp I could really use but there was rope tangled all in it. So, I sat down with an exacto knife and attempted to cut away the rope. Which resulted in me cutting my leg really bad and earning myself 16 stitches right above my left knee.

I like your idea of horse back riding. I love horses!

[sugahorse1]

Gee, you've been in the wars! I cut my small pinky finger with a potato peeler - while cutting cheese - on Saturday!

[Skully]

I guess it was the weekend for cuts then!!!

[sugahorse1]

I'm slowly getting tired and somewhat worn out - and it's only just gone 1PM (Lunch time ) here.

[Skully]

It is 7:18am here at my house. I live on the east coast of the USA. The weather is hot and sticky already today, ugh. I hate hot and sticky. Maybe if you are feeling worn out you can get some sleep.

[sugahorse1]

it's only lunch time. not tired enough to snooze in my car. just had some food. i feel quite otherwise now...

[sugahorse1]

ok, latest update is that it is now nearly home time and i think i'm coming down. from where - I don't know. I feel a bit stoned, like my world's hit a grinding halt, but the rest of the world is racing past me. conversations take place, but nothing is going into my head - i'm not comprehending. i don't feel much, other than a bit of exhaustion. I can write pages and pages of e-mails, but most of it is absolute hogwash. Spelling is attrocious.

Seeing as I don't do the mania thing, i'm a little anxious as to what to expect next. Just a levelling, or a drop into the dark pit that is depression? Who knows - but right now my bed is looking like a bit of a solace. Looking back at this morning, it's quite scary what a change has occured.

[Amandas256]

Lol! You guys have cracked me up with these posts! I'm sorry that you both cut yourselves and got a fractured hand though.
Sugahorse- how are you feeling now? When i come down from being manic sometimes I just go back to normal, I'm usually really tired though, or I'll sink into a depression. Maybe you will just level out after you get some rest! I hope you're doing great!

[sugahorse1]

Sorry Amanda - it was a bit of a bouncy thread
I'm a bit tired today. I slowed down physically, but the head is still racing a bit. then had a semi-late night with some wine last night, so the head is just feeling awfully confused right now! Lol

[sugahorse1]

I'm back - whoop whoop
slow start to the day, plus a slight hangover
but I'm back in full force.... bounce bounce

[Amandas256]

Yea for you Suga! I hope you have a great day!

[sugahorse1]

nope, this is actually getting a bit much for me now.. i want out of this jumpy mood thing

[sugahorse1]

end of the day and i'm exhausted again... yesterday I managed to find a second wind, went out to meet a mate and had some supper and wine.
Tonight - I just want to crash...

[sugahorse1]

thanks CThomas!

[Amandas256]

Aww, Sugahorse it will get better! Try to get some sleep and maybe you will wake up back to "normal". As normal as we can be anyways! I'm thinking about you and sending some good vibes your way!

[sugahorse1]

MUCH quieter today and disappearing into my iPod world. Slept like a log and battled to get up this morning
Not quite in touch with myself this morning - even driving home last night I felt like I was on auto-pilot

[sugahorse1]

how do others of you cope with these extremes of bouncing and then totally retreating? How long does the 'bouncing" last?

[Trippin2.0]

If nothing triggers a crash, I bounce for about a week...

I don't know how I cope, I've gotten used to being extreme, sorry I'm not much help...
