This day started off great, I met some wonderful people, I made them laugh and great company.

After it was done I felt drained, I feel drained. I'm tearing up, I feel very depressed. Earlier today I was in a near hypomanic high.

I can't maintain any relationships like this. I'm not funny anymore, I hate people right now, and I want to be alone.

[QUOTE=jesusplay;4047531]

When I feel like this, I generally need some alone time. Sometimes I can't handle a social environment and being around a lot of people where I feel like I must act very social.

I've found it's sometimes easier to visit with just one friend at a time instead of being in a group. Sometimes, when I'm really depressed, I don't want to see anyone at all. It just depends based on my mood and maybe it's the same for you? Best wishes to you.

That's me all ovah!
I too get drained from being with people.
When I'm with people, I turn into a very easygoing fun person.
I give the gathering, everything I got emotionally.
Afterwards, I'm drained for days. With weekend visiting family, it takes weeks to recover.
I don't want to see or have to deal with people, unless I absolutely have to.
You're not alone in this.
I notice, as I get older, it takes me even longer to recover.
Now, even long or too many phone calls, affect me too
That's just me.
*big warm friendship hug*

Yea, had that a few days ago. It kind of sucks to be happy, energetic one minute, then blah the next. It took me (still working on it). Several days to try and recoup. I tried to exercise tonight to see if that helps. Perhaps it may work for you. Hope you can rest and feel better.
