Hello,

I am not really sure where I fit in, but was hoping to get some advice. So I have these episodes that concern me because it is pretty bizarre behavior. This week has been interesting so far, I am going to kind of make a chart below of the events that have taken so place so far.

Saturday:
(Afternoon) I was pretty upset about my job for no reason and applied for a different job in a totally different field that I have no experience in.
(Night) So I got to work and had to pick up double the patient load because someone quit (I work at a nursing home). I was just zipping right along with no issues with this. Helped talk a person who wanted to commit suicide down. When I did get help at 3am I felt like they were in my way.

Sunday:
(Afternoon) Couldn’t go to sleep that morning I ended up sleeping for like 4 hours and got up at 2pm.
(Evening/Night) Went to work at 6pm and had all my work from 6pm-10pm done around 8pm, so I started on my 10pm to 6am work had it done around 11pm. Ended up for no reason cleaning the entire unit I work on, scrubbed handrails and everything.

Monday:
(Afternoon) Slept for like 5 hours today, ended up getting up around 12pm, I cleaned my office and worked on homework today.
(Evening) Fixed dinner and cleaned kitchen, mood continues to improve.
(Night) More homework (in the middle of finals :/) went to bed around 3am.

Tuesday:
(Morning) Got up about 830am cooked breakfast
(Afternoon) Debated going to class felt like I had something else to do (not sure what though), ended up talking myself into going because it was my favorite class. We were talking about suicide in the elderly, felt need to share information about this weekend’s events. Not sure why, but I did good not to reveal any information that might break HIPPA.
(Evening) Went to my 6pm class. Couldn’t pay attention/didn’t really care to pay attention, read newspaper on my tablet instead. After class ended up talking to teacher and a fellow student about something. Randomly revealed I had seen a psychologist when I was younger, also learned that said teacher works with my old psychologist at her other job. (I don’t know what sparked the need to tell this, because I normally don’t share this. Like I mean family is about the only ones who know.)
(Night) Stayed up all night playing video games, finally went to bed about 4am.

Wednesday:
(All day) Got up at 9am. Worked on some homework, did a bunch of housework. Went to church and came home. Actually went to bed at a decent(er) time, 2am. Mood continues to raise.

Thursday:
(Morning) Got up at 7am. Didn’t want to go to class, had this big plan to go somewhere. Finally did make it to class, late. Luckily there wasn’t nothing overly important. However I am pretty sure I single handily led are discussions this morning. I was in a really good mood, felt like buying lunch for everyone I knew today. Did end up buying a rather expensive lunch for my mom and me.
(Afternoon) Went to afternoon class, watched this documentary and then had a discussion about it. Was ready to talk about it, once again led discussions. Went shopping after class for groceries. Went pretty crazy on the groceries however finally I have food in my house. Got home and organized everything very neatly.
(Night) Half-way watched TV until 12am. Went to bed. Mood continues to rise.

Friday:
(Morning) Up at 7am off to class. Made it through really boring class. Came home and had breakfast. In a very good mood this morning, lots of laughter.
(Afternoon/Evening) Felt urge to drive to the city about an half-hour away. Did so, then turned around and came back. Ate a dinner, laughter and good mood continue. Decided it would be fun to go to church event 1 hour away. Booked it up there. Non-sense conversation all evening.
(Night) Got home and ended up spending the rest of my money in my checking account because I needed fuel for my car after my trips today. :/ Now I am broke until the 9th. Took a phone call this evening noticed that I was starting to get really annoyed while I was on the phone. After that I wrote this post. As of now it is 2:16am and I am still up, no signs of going to bed anytime soon either.

So this has been the week of April 26th – May 2nd. There is probably more, but this is the main things I remembered. This isn’t the first time I have had these kind of weeks, right before this I was pretty down and out. So I present this hoping for some kind of advice about what to do. Thank you to anyone who took the time to read my week!

Sounds like a typical week for me. I would guess that nothing is wrong. I am not a good person to ask though I'm bipolar and really have no clue what is typical.
