I hit a mania stage today. I can't sleep and I feel the urge to talk so bad. My mind is going at a mile a minute. I feel the urge to eat like crazy. I want to have sex with any man. How can I calm this down when I have already taken my meds? I have to work at 3:30pm. I can't go to work on no sleep. I am afraid if I crash at work how bad it will be. I crash hard when I come down from mania. Please don't judge me I really need the help so bad. I am scared if I crash that when I am coming home from work tonight I will fall asleep behind the wheel and calling off is not an option at this point. Please Please Please help me.

Can you take a sleeping tablet. Or lie in a dark room listening to relaxing music ... I usually drug myself with seroquel when manic. Do you have any other meds for when you get manic.. Can you call your pdoc for an adjustment ?

I have a sleeping pill but I am afraid to take it. Its almost 6 in the morning. I am afraid I won't get up in time for work and I am already on a very short leash with my boss. I want to take it but I am so afraid. If I take it won't be out of my system til 2pm.

I'd take the sleeping tablet - you've got time to get it out of your system - hope this helps

Try to do things that make you feel relaxed. Maybe take a bath or read a book or listen to music. Good luck getting some rest. Remember that rest is better than nothing of you can't get to sleep just lie down and rest.
