I'm currently experiencing my first "angry" hypomania. I'm normally very chipper when I'm hypo, very easy to get along with. Sure, I have some anger along the way, but I'm usually happy. However, this time I'm irritable and angry. No happiness. I feel violent. This is so unlike me.
My next T appointment is Monday, so it's kind of soon... but what can I do in the meantime to help with the extreme anger? I literally feel angry for NO reason. I want to punch something and scream. I can't drive right now because I know I'll be reckless like I was yesterday (90-95mph zig-zagging through traffic on the highway and cutting people off because I'm angry and impatient) Why can't my hypomania be happy?

I get this way during a mixed episode and it's called dysphoric mania. I would lock myself in my room for my family's sake because God knows what would fly out of my mouth! I got this way from lamictal once so that was med induced. I used to get it coming off of stimulants too but getting on trileptal as a stabilizer stopped it asap. Honestly when I would get so bad I would just take a PRN and sleep it off. Because as much as I'd like, driving my car into a brick wall or punching my bf wasn't an option lol

Ouch I remember mine. A sore memory.
***This may trigger by the way, sorry. I was about 14 and I was having a house party and having a good time as usual. My excitable energy turned nasty and I blacked out. Its not unusual for my happy energy to turn bad, I have to be careful not to lose control of it. The next thing I remember I was sawing in to my nose on my doorstep with a blunt kitchen knife. I stil have the scars today (12 years later omg im getting old) and have no idea why I was doing it. I hope you nip your angry mania in the bud, I agree with the above post, exercise might help? just find a safe way to try and release it
