I got pay a few days ago , I'm definitely still manic. I am on disability so I only get paid once a month, which is usually big trouble when I am manic.

I've gone shopping lots, cause well frankly there is out much else to do , raining everyday. However, I only bought some plants for my garden, and when I was in expensive clothing shops and other stores, just as I was about to make foolish purchases I stopped my self!! I am really proud because I usually don't intervene on myself. Today I am going shopping for a gnome, another rainy day, and I can't just sit inside. Hopefully I will do good today and only come home with a gnome.

Speaking of gnomes, I thought I had much improved on the new med switch to zyprexa, but when I was out and about early morning yesterday, there was four staff setting up in this really tiny garden "room". I saw a tiny person walk by. OK so the tiny people are not gone yet, they only stand about 6 inches tall, and I feel they are not friendly. I hate having hallucinations when others are near by. I left the room quickly trying not to looked to weird. Anyways , I hope if I find a garden gnome that this isn't going to e a problem, just thought of this now.

I was just proud (seldom happens) of myself and felt like sharing with people who understand.

I am wishing everyone a good day today.

I thank you for your wishing. You are good if you are able to stop yourself. I understand what it means.

GREAT JOB ON STOPPING YOURSELF! i know exactly what you mean!

It's hard - you should be proud - i'm proud of you too!

Thanks guys!!

I only found one gnome for $30.. ouch really? So I left him at the store. Tho it was very tempting. However I did buy a bunch of stuff I did not really need, so victory dance over. win some you loose some I guess.
