I have been very well and supposedly hypomanic for the last weeks. Now I am back to where I started. The guy I had fallen in love with returned to Mexico yesterday and we said goodbye on sunday. I thought I wasn't really so much in love and it was alright as I was enjoying everything I did. Now I am crashing, as I had feared before, and crashing hard. I know being sad is a very normal reaction and just fine. But this is something else. I went back to cutting, don't see any sense in anything, don't want to see anyone, keep crying a lot, question everything, but am still kind of agitated and with racing thoughts and irritability. Is this just lovesickness or already something else? I shut people out again. Can episodes get triggered by losing someone or having a bad experience?

Oh dear, don't hurt yourself over this. Yes you may be crashing. I'm a rapid cycler so I get like this very often. Do you have a PRN for anxiety that you can take to calm you?? If you're love sick, cry it out. It really helps. Can you keep in touch with him while he's in Mexico??

 is sorry you are hurting. I think a emotional blow can trigger episodes ...at least it happens to me.

It's good to know that it happens to you! Because the forst two days I was doing fine, sad and a little miserable, but adequate to being lovesick. Now it just started to spin out of control. Yes, we are keeping in touch and he is looking for some way to come back to Germany with a working visa. I would be really glad if he managed!

And how do your mixed states show? I just recently learned about their existence and I could pretty much relate. I sometimes get very energetic and agitated and cannot sleep, but am filled with dark racing thoughts and desperation at the same time. It uses to end in drinking and cutting and risky party behaviour, drawing back during the day, partying at night until I reach a point where I become afraid for my life and usually look for help.
