Well with the caffeine out of my system, most of the anxiety is gone, but I still feel a crushing depression.
I feel like I use this thread as charting my moods sometimes...

Was having a good day and then got an email that sent me on a crying at work jag. Got through it mostly with slightly less lost time working than usual. Still frustrated that I get this way. I work 75-80 hrs a week, and I've started to wonder if I weren't bipolar if that would just be 45 hrs a week because I waste so much time with my anxiety.

Still doing ok. Feeling a little overwhelmed today, but I'm also exhausted from a terrible night's sleep. Boss has given me a bunch of extra work too.

Didn't realize till late last night how much I had let being sad take over most of the 2nd half of yesterday. Woke up anxious this morning, but I am determined to not let it be a bad day. Hoping I can keep it together.

Had my psych appointment today, increased my med dosages, 100mg of Lamictal and 60mg of Latuda, let's hope this helps a bit, especially with some of the cycling I've been going through. Also met with my case manager, found out I'll eventually be transferred to a new one, forgot the reason why, I think he said he took another job with where I go, so doing something different. But it doesn't mean I'm not worried, I'm just worried it might affect my treatment or I won't like/trust this new person, but I'll see when the time comes to meet the new one. So there's that I guess, still not in the best mood, but at least I'm not suicidal today.

First day back in the office after working at home for the past week. Since not that many people were in today, it was easy to stay alone. But one of my supervisors came and checked on me like she does when she notices I'm really quiet. I couldn't even fake it like I usually can. It was awkward. As the day was winding down, anxiety started to rise and I felt a little numb and depressed. The higher the Lamictal goes the worse I feel. I'm giving this until the end of the week and then I'm done..

I'm a total idiot, I for the past two nights accidentally took 80mg of my Latuda instead of 60mg which is my actual new dosage. I should taken a 40mg and 20mg tablet (I still have some 20mg tablets lying around in case of emergency) but no my idot self took two 40mg tablets instead. Well hopefully it hasn't affected me too much.

I registered for this site. I cleaned and baked and wrote, hypomanic stuff. Now I'm crying. Then I do laundry. Then I cry some more. No idea why I'm crying.

I slept until about noon today. I actually decided to open the drapes in my room and finally let in some light for the first time in weeks. I guess that helped because then I got the urge to clean. The front half of the house (living room, dining room, and kitchen) has been scrubbed. Then I was still hyper and wanting to get out of the house despite all that work. I tried contacting my sister a few times since I was going to be near her place, but no response. For some reason this really pissed me off and I was mad and irritated. I've been up and down today. I don't even know what to think what my mood is now. Is it possible depression has finally lifted? I hope so, but we'll see how tomorrow goes..
