I have done all my laundry, all my housework and all my homework. I even went swimming and cleaned the pool and now I'm still full of energy and I'm BORED. I so wish I could be like this all the time. It's so productive.

I sometimes wish for the "productivity" of my mania, but then I remember the low that follows...

Yep. Yep. Yep. I just got off the "train from crazytown," myself. While I can eat off my floors now, I hate to stick my head out of the door of my apartment...I'm afraid the neighbors have been treated to me at my most...Ummmmmm..."interesting." I've had the most interesting conversations with me, myself & I lately...& a bounce in my step that was far from "normal." Oh, well. Sometimes you have to take the yin with the yang.

..it's amazing what we can do when the mania is focused!...can have 10 things going at once it's like in one single day you can make up for all that aint done in 7 days...or more

amazing....chaotic but still very cool that it happens...often for me it's just immediately after I decided I really can't do bugger all any more ever again ...

I'm happy for you thanks for the topic..

I think I wish I suffered from mania more than I do bipolar depression. I am ok now, kind of coasting. I wish I felt great but this is much better than feeling badly, so I am happy.

Ugh, I think comparing that energy to what it is like without it, not depressed but, without that drive, even if it is uncomfortable sometimes...just sighs.

I often wish for the productivity of my mania...if I could stay in those states all the time it would be great! I think the worst thing I do while manic is annoy everyone...
