Am I headed into an upswing again? I did something very reckless, have been spending money like crazy, mind is racing, am only sleeping 3 to 4 hours a night or none at all the past few days. This is strange because a week ago I couldn't get out of bed and get enough sleep. I think Lithium or Abilify were making me tired. Not anymore though! I have no one to talk to though or I would be talking a lot, everyone's asleep

The odd thing is I'm cycling fast, I never cycled fast at all before I was on meds. I mean I'm happy I feel great but this usually ends in depression which I'm worried about but I think the Lithium will help keep that at bay.

i think we all worry about the depression side of things.

with a high, their's always gonna be a low

what's the phrase... what goes up, must come down...

If you arent sleeping much or not at all, and doing the other stuff its time to call the dr. Manic isnt good cause depression almost always follows.

Thanks for the replies I actually realized that I have been taking the wrong dose of medicine I'm on accidentally, about a quarter of what I'm supposed to take. I think that probably contributed to it because I took the right does earlier and I feel calmer
