Do you have a hobby? When I am manic I do a lot of crafty things. Friendship bracelets and things like that. Otherwise I clean.
I'm kind of in the same boat. I'm supposed to be in partial today but my husband had to go to the dentist so I have to be home with our son and I'm caught in a weird no-man's land between depression and hypo so I have no motivation but I'm restless. Anyway. Try a new hobby if you can concentrate enough.

Do you feel like getting off the couch? I sometimes just sit and groom while watching tv if I know I have someplace to go but just want to sink into the couch until it's time to go. Filing nails, plucking eyebrows, nose hairs, anything that takes time and you haven't done in a while.
If you do feel like getting off the couch, go outside for a couple minutes. That might inspire you to do something. I feel like crap, I go outside and start to see all the pine needles and dog poop I need to clean up and I just start doing it. Not saying I finish it, but I start and I kill some time. And it's a mindless thing to do. Doesn't take hardly any concentration at all.

Actually I've never had never had time or money for hobbies. Fishing was a therapy, but can be expensive. It's not so much fishing I love, it's catching fish. It can cost to set right on them.
Wish I could set up to tournament style fish, but it's money I ain't got. But catching fish is/was a major thrill. I've got this thing for adrenaline. Heck, last time a buddy of mine and me set on some, it came a thunderstorm with a lot of lightning. Fish went into a spring feeding frenzy. He asked if I wanted to go. I said hell no let the lightning strike me, I'm catching fish. I'm nuts I tell you. |

Well, getting close to time to go see the Wizard Of Oz. I feel a dark crash coming afterwards.
Can I trust that my friends will be here for me? I ain't go no one else, seriously. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
