Mixed. Indescribable symptoms. I'm safe, taking meds, I don't drink, my partner is taking care of me. T appt tomorrow.

I feel horrible but I'll pull through. IP made a disaster with med changes and I caught a severe case of bronchitis in IP two days before discharge. Just finished antibiotics.

Saw pdoc on Friday last week. He switched me back with a few tweaks. Best med cocktail--taken it several years.

Currently in the middle of a Conversion Disorder episode.

CD (now renamed Functional Neurological Disorder [FND] in the DSM-5) is rare psychogenic neurological disorder, classified under somatoform disorders. Psychological (or physiological) triggers/stress induce the manifestation of inorganic neurological symptoms. The symptoms are thought to be the "conversion" of psychological stress to neurological symptoms.

During CD episodes, I have a higher likelihood manic/hypomanic symptoms. It's more so the depressive/incredible anxiety/panic symptoms that are "converted," which is the supposed theory for what happens.

Kind of between euthymia and manic right now. Odd.

Symptoms (my poor bastard boyfriend deals with this):
-more spastic mental breakdowns
-paranoia
-more irritability
-significantly higher desire for social activity
-worsening ADHD symptoms despite my ADHD meds typically working
-higher productivity
-wanting to do ALL of the things ALL at once (multi-tasking and picking up random tasks, some from previous manic episodes)
-not sleeping much (and then crashing, then not sleeping—cyclical)
-higher incidence of active suicidal ideation (odd one)

Currently experiencing these, simultaneously or alternating, with CD symptoms.

I'm sorry that IP pdoc changed all your meds. Hopefully soon you feel better.

Thanks. I'm never going IP again. Not voluntarily. I'm done.

I encourage anyone to go IP if you need it. It helps a lot of people.

You've got support from me as well. I've sorry you've had a bad day. One week, three days down though. That's awesome! You're doing well stay with your meds despite them being wonky. They'll get the combo right. You can do it. <3
