I have been up for most of the night, even after taking an ambien, I've slept only a few hours. I did sleep a lot the day before but slept only an hour the day before that. I feel like I'm going to crawl right out of my skin! Also, I get irrationally grumpy. I was outside trying to clear our driveway (got lots of snow here in Maine recently) and was ranting about the snow and how people should have 4 wheel drive or clear the driveway themselves. Funny in retrospect but I felt so irritated and crumby at the time. My friends find my rants pretty funny since they're usually harmless and ridiculous. I was irritable like that yesterday over taking a shower! What is wrong with me? Small daily tasks that I used to do without thinking about it are driving me nuts. Sometimes I don't even shower because its too much of a hassle. The other day, I figured out that I hadn't showered for 3 days and that is very unusual, at least before I "got sick" m(I don't know how else to explain it). It's a good thing I sleep and veg or I would pobably smell pretty offensive. Good grief I feel so ridiculous sometimes. Anyone else out there share my feeelings?

I'm slowly recovering from my first full-blown-manic episode and you've pretty much just described it. Sucks, doesn't it?

Yeah it does! I feel a little better now. I'm on Geodon now and hopefully it'll help.

I am glad you are feeling better.
I suffer from hypo-mania but I know how crazy mania can be. Big hugs |

I think I may be in a hypo manic state--sleeping 3 hours or so for the last 3 nights. But I hate to report it to my pdoc cuz I have so much energy & enthusiasm. I had been experiencing bouts of depression recently so I'm happy to be relieved of that for awhile. I guess I will watch myself to see if it gets out of hand or if the depression returns.--Suzy Meanwhile, let's go shopping!

I have been that way too. I feel so good sometimes that I don't need to sleep and I'm just getting things done! The problem is, I crash and I'm out for days! Now I'm working on being in the middle and that is a good place to be. Confiding in my pdoc was the best thing I've done so far, eventhough I was afraid. I'm still struggling (right now I am up, up, up and away!) but I feel like I have a little more control over my life. Thanks for the response!
