Ever have what is just a bad "brain day?" A bad bipolar day? A day when nothing is wrong, but everything is wrong? Maybe agitated depression mixed with a little self hate with no obvious trigger?

I've had a couple of these days recently and they suck pond scum. They make me question my nutrition and my meds and sometimes they're a warning signal..... but sometimes they only exist to suffer through and they go away.

Anybody got an opinion? I'm BPI, anxiety disorder, PTSD, ADD Inattentive type.....

Ugh, I feel your pain. I just feel super irritated for no reason - can't stop moving and it is painful not to. I just want to punch a hole through my work computer - I won't.. but literally I'm clenching my fists and digging my nails into my palms.. Hope you feel better. <3

Yes I have plenty of bad brain days

Yeah I think you're right - I certainly can have aggrevated depression with no obvious trigger. It doesn't feel nice I agree.

Sometimes, yes, you're right - meds do need adjusting when we feel this way.

Has your pdoc recommended any changes you can possibly do with your meds to alleviate the symptoms?

Well, I'm back after a couple of days of taking klonopin and ice cream in what feels like equal amounts. I'm still antisocial. I can't get in to see my pdoc until the 24th, so I have to suck up this feeling and just ride it until it either goes away or I see the pdoc for changes, whichever comes first.

Generally speaking, I'm stable.... whatever that is..... and I've just had three months of stability. But now, not so much. I want to do things, but I don't want to deal with people.... sucks, I know.

I'm sorry that you're stuck in the middle of wanting to do things but being pulled back due to not wanting to deal with people

I hope that you are able to find a happy medium soon.

A bad brain day

your bad brain day sounds a lot like my bad days, I just try to remember I am a fighter and I will win the battles that my brain throws at me. I will win in the end. but it is still a fight.
