UGH!!!! People don't know how hard it is for me to act normal. Its a full time job in itself. This morning at work I couldn't control it anymore and started wiggin out a bit and gettin pissed off. Everyone could see it.

Just wanna act like a normal human being, at least when I'm at work or in public. Normally I can hold back the demons and not let them surface, but they were out in full force today. SUCKS!!!!

Yeah, been there myself with this recent manic episode of mine....ugh! When I was going into mania, but not completely off my rocker yet I was still working and I remember I had no off button on my mouth, I would just say whatever came to mind and cringe afterward and say "Ohh I was just kiddin'".... then another time I couldn't muster up the niceness to say "just kiddin'" and I said ..."I just say what everyone is thinking and don't have the courage to say".... Oye e vay I'm lucky I didn't get fired.
Thanks for this!

I've made a fool of myself in public before as well. It hasn't happened since then but that is probably because I won't go anywhere that MAY trigger extreme emotions unless I am absolutely stable.

I am very lucky I don't have to work, so I don't have to worry about snapping but I am sure that I would, as I snap at my father for things that are small and meaningless.

I hope that you can find a way to calm the anger.

I might have an idea, don't be too hard on yourself, I am sure we have all been there in one way or another. I know I have. We can't always be in full control 100% Of the time. I know that must have sucked for you , but hopefully will all blow over quickly for for you. Just don't want you to be too hard on yourself as I am sure you are trying your best.

My pdoc and I were talking last appt about how stable I am and ready to go back to work and he said, you realize even without the mental illness you are rather peculiar. Yes, I know, doc.

I guess in some ways being an individual is way better than being the senseless masses. It sucks a lot but life could be really boring instead and that may suck just as much?
