So, according to my wife (who is pretty good judge of my mood, if I am not not seeing it) I went through a depressive period from thxgiving to xmas, and then since about xmas I have been feel some days way up and I can tackle the world, and other days sorta sideways like I am both up and down? IDK...it's odd....easy to blow off the handle at people, easily over stressed, ready to walk away from job and get a new one. Very energetic, but tired of it all mentally. Can't slow down. Meditation is pointless there is no way I could focus on breath that long.
Hmm...sounds hypomanic to me...and maybe the little bits of 'down' in there are my discomfort with the hypomanic state? IDK -- it's hard to get out....feel like I could shake outta my skin....can't sit still, etc.... You thoughts? |

I honestly think that listening to those around you is a good way to gauge a mood. We don't see ourselves in the same light as those around us. Hell, half the time we are in denial that anything is going on. I think that it would be wise to consider what your wife is saying, and I say that as someone who's wife tells me the same things when my moods are off. From personal experience, my wife has always been able to tell much better than me when my moods are fluctuating.

Sounds like a mixed episode to me. Those are the worst for me. I have the feelings of depression but all the energy and racing thoughts of mania. It's also the most dangerous for me because I'm usually suicidal but when im depressed I don't have the energy to carry out a plan. When I'm mixed I do.
