I wish my mind wasn't a huge blank and I actually had random thoughts.

why is it that when I stay up late doing schoolwork I end up tired the next day, but if I stay up all night ruminating over something I am not tired the next day. Ruminating is so much more tiring than studying.

I took a nap. I drank an energy drink. I'm drinking Dr. Pepper. I still don't feel like working. I know eating all this junk gets me nowhere over time. But I'm desperate right now. Why am I so busy that I don't get the rest I need?!

I haven't slept in three days. I know most of it is not my fault...but a part of my brain fights sleeping. Body is tired and I don't even want to get into bed. I'm not taking my Klonopin four times a day, as prescribed. I'm taking two doses (1 mg pills) perday. This isn't a sleep aide. It's to control my mania and helps anxiety.

Wtf am I doing? I'm not dumb. I'm lucid still. Am I losing insight in this mixed episode? Have pdoc appt on Monday and flying home tomorrow, thankfully.

Any comments appreciated. Tough love? Water boarding? Bipolar sucks. I'm not trying to be a victim. I am playing with fire but cannot logically do things right atm. I've been skipping my benzo for a long time but do take 1-2 daily, but not the four I'm supposed to take. What's wrong with me? This has been a trend for awhile.

Oh dear, this has to feel yucky!
Is a part of you reluctant to give in to the effects of the complete regimen?
Do you feel you need to remain vigilant for some reason?

I do this sort of thing when I am not feeling comfortable in "new/different" surroundings. I cut back meds, don't sleep -- on purpose, because I am guarding/hypervigilant. I feel a threat on some level from PTSD.

is it possible you are feeling something similar?

I think I'm chasing hypomania. Flat honesty. My PTSD and this vacation is a factor.

I trust my pdoc. These aren't new meds and I like my combo. When I quit drinking, I noticed I approached hypomania quickly because that depressant was not in my system. I like being up. I'm being dumb.

My boyfriend is going to go to the grocery store to buy food I like. I need 500 calories for Geodon and hopefully sleep. I may be fighting the food due to ED.

Taking less of your benzo is a good idea. Try to take even less. Your provider is apparently a moron (sorry) to give you that high of a daily dose of benzo. It's better if you do not take even 2 per day. I wish you great good luck.

I really don't feel like leaving the house today. Looks like it's too hot to do so. But good news, my sister just called and she and the little ones are headed over here! Three days in a row with these guys!

Just had quite a bit of rain and maybe two rumbles of thunder. Not much of a storm but I'll take it.
