I am SO happy at the moment, I feel like I've had the best night of my life (which is how I have ended every night for the past 3!) I met up with my two best friends, we all live in separate counties and don't get to see each other nearly enough, but when we do it's amazing, they are the only two people on the planet that I can talk fully and frankly about my problems, as they are exactly the same and understand exactly where I'm coming from! We got my friend drunk as it's her birthday, I stayed on soft drinks but I feel like I'm the one who was drinking alcohol! Am just buzzing at the moment... I got home and realised I had far too much energy for my little one-bedroom flat, so I've had to go for a walk. I wish I could feel like this more often, it's bloody amazing. Just wanted to share

I'm so happy for you! I've had times like that with friends & know how incredible they can be.

Just be sure sure to monitor things. Getting rid of some of that energy is super. Don't want all this good times feeling to turn on you !

Thanks, roadrunner. It's still all good. Was slightly worried I might come down today, but it seems to still be there (if subsiding a little).

I have been for six walks in the past 24 hours!! The best one was around 4am, at that time before the sun comes up when the world is asleep and the outside is yours alone to experience. It was a really new sensation, where my thoughts were still racing but at the same time I felt serene and peaceful. It was intense but calming at the same time! And later on in the morning, I wrote about it. I used to be a writer... I haven't written in a very long time. I am so thankful for this experience.

I was starting to feel a little drowsy earlier which made me slightly apprehensive that the buzz was starting to fade, but here I am at 11pm and still up. I did contemplate going to bed, and then at some point changed my mind and decided to go for another long walk, this time in the rain. Brought some of that intensity back again! And now the tiredness has gone. I wouldn't say I'm hyper or ridiculously energised, but I don't have any real urge to sleep. Can't decide what to do... to go to bed or not?

I have struggled and suffered through so many depressions and some frightening mixed episodes and at the moment I just feel like all of that pain was worth it just to experience this. Please, please don't let me come down just yet

Well, I'm still happy for you, espritlibre. Just hoping you can come down without going any further up.

You don't want to ruin all this perfection with a doomed-2-destruct manic episode--so glide in to a nice, balanced landing real soon, hear?
