You're already on an antipsychotic, more than that seems a tad overkill in my opinion, so I wouldn't worry about "feeling good" if every time we felt good led to a manic episode we'd all be hospitalized most of our lives, so I would just watch for the normal signs like getting less sleep, racing thoughts, delusions, etc and inform your doctor about what you're doing and get their opinion

If your feeling "okay" just enjoy the living hell out of it

I agree 100% with ~Christina. That's the best time for someone with bipolar imo. I was feeling that way a month ago and it was awesome. Now anxiety has taken over. At least I'm not depressed....i think. I can never tell at first.

I agree with the above posters. Enjoy the crap out of it.
But I do know what you mean. When I start to feeling "Happy and Giddy" I begin to worry it's mania settling in, and worried about the inevitable crash. I'm glad you are feeling well. Enjoy.

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