Yesterday I had the agency tell me that they will not send anyone out to help me anymore. Adult Protection Services came and is investigating me for abuse or neglect of my mother. What??? I ended the day feeling bulletproof and europhic. Huh?

I am going through a difficult time and I was feeling mildly europhic? I do not understand this. What Is wrong with me?

UPDATE: I am one sitting at Denny's with my mother instead of dwelling on the bad stuff at home. I have her listening to her music, a portable setup that I had purchased for her. I have no idea what I am going to do today. I need to keep moving. My anxiety is high, but I am not depressed. I do still have moments of euphoria.

Yes, stress can induce episodes.

I was very depressed and borderline psychotic right For about three week before Easter. Then I had my lowest day of depression on Tuesday. That nighth husband came home in a lot of pain so he was irritable so we got in a fight over something and it ended with him threatening to commit me. The stress from that day spin kicked me into hypomania with full on raging psychosis.

I'm still manic now. Even after six days in inpatient. It goes from hypo in the morning to flat out manic as my meds wear off. So in summation yes stress can induce episodes. Last year I was thrown into a terrible depression from a car crash. Anything is possible. Just be safe, ok?

I lost my job a little over a week ago and my mood has only improved since then, even though I'm in desperate financial straits and need to find another job STAT. I wouldn't say I'm hypomanic, maybe pre-hypomanic. (That's a term I made up to describe what everyone else in my life thinks is actually hypomania.) But then it could just be relief that I no longer have to deal with the frustration of trying to memorize and use vast amounts of information when I have the attention span of a fruit fly. I don't know......but I sure can use the extra energy and the self-confidence I've got right now.
