Was about 6 months ago. I got sectioned, on the night it happened i broke out with a fellow patient by breaking a mirror frame and opening the door. Five minutes after we escaped i got extremely thirsty, I then walk up to a school smashed the window with my elbow, ended up with a cut down to the bone. I got a drink, left the school. Then i walked down the middle of a very busy street causing cars to stop. Ended up being chased by two police dogs 14 police officers and a helicopter and i was obviously caught. I caused a lot of damage that night.

I've been reading this thread thinking to myself, what have I done? I don't think I've done anything crazy. But I'm not perfect, so two things come to mind that are similar to others..
Reckless driving. Going unnecessarily fast on highways and neighborhood streets.
I'm sure I've done drunk driving here and there, but I justified it by saying to myself that "I'm only buzzed, not drunk, I'm fine." But buzzed driving is dunk driving.
You know how many meds say "may cause drowsiness, do not operate heavy machinery" or something to that effect..? Well that is definitely my effect with my trileptal. Once I popped those pills, I NEVER leave my house. Never in the six years I was taking it have I been behind the wheel afterwards. But last summer while I was hypo I did for someone reason for sex with a guy I shouldn't even done this for. That definitely was not worth it first of all, and definitely felt like drunk driving. And the Dr. Pepper that I drank on the way there definitely did not help like I thought it would at that time.
Never ever have I told anyone this for obvious reasons

I'm a proud vandal of 33 years. Greatest achievement was making our local paper and then the televised news in SLC, which landed me first vandalism charge + disorderly conduct. 3 speeding, 64 in a 55, 90 in a 55 +reckless driving and 72 in a 55 +no seatbelt. Shoplifting, assault, and the worst.....(drum roll please) Drunk in Public +Fleeing and Alluding+Assault on a police officer

I stole a necklace from my roommate because she kicked me out for trying to kill myself several times. I choose one that I know had no value (she had a cross and some other ones that were important to her). I didn't want to harm her, but I wanted to feel like I had one last revenge.

I also threw my ex-husband's class ring in a lake. Looking back, I should have kept it for the gold and sold the d&*n thing.

Here is just a few
1) kicked someone's car door in (a big dent) - did not get caught
2) threw a can of white paint on a black car - got caught, owner did not press charges
3) drove 140 in a 100 zone - cop told me to slow down
4) got out of my car and told the people in front of me (two kids) that I was going to kill them and which m...f.. wants to die first, kicked in various parts of the car - did not get caught
5) went on a car breaking in spree, not stealing anything but moving everything (mirrors, sunglasses etc) around inside...somehow I found this hilarious - not caught
there is more, but I will stop here

There's a movie with that -- breaking in to rearrange -- houses though-- a German movie called The Edukators. It's good, you'd probably enjoy it!

Your road adventures brought to mind a time when I rode my bike to work, and some guy at the intersection really ticked me off (He was totally in the wrong, then compounded my wrath by wagging a patronizing little tut-tut finger at me! ) I VERY reluctantly continued in to work, but it was EVERYTHING I could do to refrain from wheeling back around to chase him down and continue my fully gesticulated diatribe. I was SO worked up. So, ultimately there was no crime, no fingers broken, no idiot pummelled or even properly schooled. Still, it's a good visual...

Ferocious little bicycle-rider furiously chases down GIANT RV! Film at 11!
Lol. (I can get a little... Invincible. )

I jumped - fully clothed - into the fountain outside shopping centre, it was middle of the autumn, then i was dancing erotically with some girl. Someone from my school office saw that and I had to explain a thousand times that I'm not taking drugs.
Lots of weird sex stuff also.

Hit and run, 2 duis, kicked out of bars for throwing bottles; I used to work in a dept. store and I stole 30 pairs of leather gloves in different colors; I'd stuff them in my top drawer and never wear them

Yeah that counts. Anyone who saw would have probably called the cops, you just got lucky

They are cracking down on it where I live but its safer to cross in the middle than it is on corners.

Hit and Run (wasn't caught), three DUIs, 2 misdemeanor shoplifting charges, buying and selling drugs for years on end. I was ten foot tall & bulletproof when I was on Xanax & oxy.

I was the local cop's kid; so when I got caught, I was bundled home to explain to my mom (hmmm...shoplifting, reckless driving, panhandling, drugs). I moved to another town a week before my 21st birthday and promptly got arrested with about twelve charges; hard knocks of life that mama's clout didn't reach that far. I've committed some horrendous crimes in my manic episodes, most which eventually involve drugs or alcohol, but again, I haven't been caught; well, save once, sorta. I once traveled almost two hundred miles through the desert, gathering all the road signs I saw. Because a friend of mine in _____ agreed to help put them back, I was just warned and lectured (small town sheriffs can rock, or not) Not sure if not being caught is a blessing or a curse sometimes.
