Already hypo, but I took an Adderall anyways even though I'm not supposed to. (I need it to concentrate at work.)

I feel this fantastic warm energy emanating from my chest. It's indescribable

It's snowing here, traffic in town wasn't too bad. I made it to work on time. Trying really hard to keep to routines, so far so good

Not sleeping well. It has been a week now and has co-incided with me becoming stable. No matter what methods I have used I only get about 3 hours at the most. My doctor says my brain is recovering and we agreed to try non-medication path for another 9 days when I see him again. If, by then, my sleep is still poor we will have to look at medication to prevent any problems that could arise from long periods of no-sleep.

I have just come out of a manic period so my brain is in healing mode. Hoping my brain will re-learn to sleep soon. I do feel tiredness during the day but am fully functional.

In the middle of a state where nothing is detrimental but I am craving some kind of stimulation. Life feels so meaningless and empty, wish I had something to keep my mind occupied.

Went to hospital and got diabetes medication. Both pdoc and regular doc agree to not change my psych meds because I'm doing well on them. So I'll have to do the poke my finger thing for now. Also got a consult to have acupuncture done on my back as pain management. Fun.

It's been snowing like blazes and the roads have been slick. Just glad to be home with a bowl of chili.

Pretty normal day. Went to work and got a lot done. Now it's evening and I've taken my sons to their boys' club. I'm waiting for them to be done.

Looking forward to the end of the week. I start my vacation on Friday, and I'm off work until the end of the year. Going on a road trip with the family to visit extended family. It'll be good, but also freaking cold in Minnesota!

Starting Latuda today... hoping it treats me better than Abilify does. Getting really tired of these med changes.

Plugging right along with my med change. Lots of personal stuff happening with my son so my emotions are just all over the place. Sobbing from sorrow one second, tears of joy the next, laughing hysterically over things which may not be funny (but my dad agreed it was so who know) then sobbing again and round and round and round. All things considered I think I'm doing well. I'm hopeful that my son will get better....he keeps begging to come home and it's killing me. I go back and forth between being sad and scared for him and being angry because of what he did to my poor mother. He's broken her heart in a way I'm not sure it can be mended. She has sacfraficed so much of her life for others.....for him especially and he threw it in her face which is killing me. She has so much pain in her face and voice and it kills me that I can't fix it for her. She's the most beautiful person in the world to me and deserves nothing but love. My son is sick but he's also an ungrateful snot right now and I am oscillating between being scared and wanting to hug him and wanting to tell him how much he's hurt his grandmother. I just want him well....and I want my moms pain to lessen. I just want everyone happy and healthy in every way.

I'm frequently in that position- wanting everybody well and getting along. My eldest son is too. Don't forget to take care of yourself while you are taking care of them. It sounds like the both need you.

Also have a stomach ache.
