Every little thing that went wrong to day I screamed at. I screamed at the kitchen sink, other drivers, shopping carts, people, myself, doors, my husband, a jar of spagetti sauce, oh and my foot. I get irritated and angry but I have never been in a mood like this. I am kinda scaring myself (and husband). I think I have gone mad.

Hi twirls01,
I have been incredibly irritable--okay angry--maybe enraged is the right word-- for about the past week. I saw my therapist today and my lamictal is being increased. I am hoping that will help. Having been bipolar so long I feel like i have terrible trouble knowing if I am angry because I am in an episode or angry because I have a legitimate issue that needs to be dealt with. It's the same when I am feeling good. I wonder if it is normal happiness or I am starting hypomania. Do you have a therapist to help you sort it all out? It does feel awful when I feel like I am angry over nothing. It really does create a feeling that I must be certifiably insane. We do have to be less critical with ourselves I think about our feelings. Like they say, a feeling never killed anyone. Meta

I see my pdoc next week. She tells me I am doing too much and need to care for myself. I don't think that is why I am angry though. She will probablity adjust meds, but I hope she does not up Lithium again. Alls it does is make me hungry.

Of course, it's not always fair to blame the meds. I'm unmedicated, and sometimes a friendly person saying "hi" is enough to send me into a rage. I even know it's an irrational anger when I'm upset, but I just can't ever seem to shake it. |
