For many, many years I have had the sensation that everything around me is energized...that everything is alive. In a way, the feeling is amazing. In a way, it's a bit scary and tiring. Things have their own energy, and oftentimes their own personality. I often wonder if the feeling I have might be part of hypomania (or perhaps everything really does have its own energy). Does anyone out there have this perception?

I did once but i was all types of manic so i know it was due to that. Is this feeling constant, not connected to any mood state? If so maybe you are super sensitive to energies. I don't know about things having personalities though.

I do. I feel the history under my heels. Literally. (then again, I live in Europe. Strees of the cities are soaked with it). I feel the earth spinning. THe spirits of the nature and all.

It's real to me pretty much.........

I've had that feeling during hypomania. I love it.

Hmm. Interesting replies. Thank you all. Yes, for me the sensation I've described is constant. It has nothing to do with my mood, although there's something of an ecstasy feeling to the sensation, so it might be a part of mixed states. Or not. The feeling, or perception, of the energy doesn't seem to me to be directly related to me. It seems to be something I'm aware of. But then, I'm not sure we can perceive things without filtering the perception through ourselves.
Thanks for this!

Sister Rags,

Well articulated. What you describe is what Native Americans have lived forever.
Not that their energy or mindset is at all hypomanic. It's real as every day and breathing is real.

Of course we know that you will be mindful to any undue rise in the energy connection you feel and see your pdoc.

It actually sounds like an amazing concept.

It is amazing, and it's also isolating. And frightening because I worry that my mind is unwell or that I'll develop dementia. Or that I have a seizure disorder and am not treating it. Also, with the sensation of being able to feel that everything is energized I also feel that everything is illusory...unreal, including myself. Spiritually, perhaps a profound state...having to live with it all of the time for the past many decades...a lot to carry. Tiring.

So it's not the thing itself that is concerning, but it's your rumminating about it and trying to fit into concepts of western defined normal.

Life is much easier if you let these things come and go. I mean, maybe you are seeing the true world and others merely shadows on the wall....
