A little high. I'm hypomanic right now.

@bizi
My sleep sucked for a few days; I was getting 2-3 hours a night. But yesterday I slept from 9-6 and last night from 9-5 AM so a LOT better. I am still a bit high too. Better than I was though. A few days ago I thought I was having one-on-one conversations with God in my head. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

Higher than I was yesterday. Not full manic but full of energy even though I was exhausted when I first woke up. I did have some caffeine, but just 1 cup of coffee WAY early, like 6 AM and half a diet Cherry Coke. That's WAY less than usual for me.

I think it was a combo of things: first, I made a meds screwup the week before the mania started or possibly longer b/c so many meds of my meds (namely the round white tablets) look SO much alike.
Also, Hurricane Beryl hit something like the 6th or 7th, last week Monday whenever that was. We were out of power 24 hr. The weather was so humid and hot and there were heat advisories. We toughed it out here 12 hr, but I knew there was no way I'd manage to fall asleep, so we went to my sister's house (she got power back 12 hr. sooner than we did), but between the stress of the hurricane and sleeping in a strange bed, I didn't get much sleep there. Then, my mother & aunt had a HUGE argument and both kept texting me all about their sides of the argument and how they were right, blah, blah blah...as I was already unraveling. Now, I realize they WERE out of power for 4 days (though my parents had a generator), but still they KNOW I have bipolar and that stress sets it off, and I was already stressed having lost all the food in my refrigerator (not the freezer at least), but I didn't have the foods to make the meals I'd planned and a lot of grocery stores nearby still didn't have power or weren't delivering yet. Not to mention meal planning stresses me out SO much, way beyond proportion, though H is a picky eater, and my daughter even pickier. So I was stressed about the meals and really didn't need their drama. So really, it was the perfect storm... __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

Still a bit high. Not as bad as I was. Still more elevated than baseline. Med changes may be starting to take effect.

Leveling out a bit. Still quite happy however. 😊 I think the switch from Cymbalta to zoloft was a good idea. I think I was right in thinking Cymbalta had stopped working.

I am in the middle right now. I am glad to be stable at the moment. Now if I could get my sleep regulated. If not, I will be in trouble. I might slip into depression or become manic. Drinking pop late at night doesn't help though. Hopefully I can head to bed soon and actually sleep through the night this time.
