Hey, soI posted this same post in the general mental health forum, but was suggested to post it here too. So, here goes...

I was diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder, Severe Anxiety, and PTSD 2 years ago.

I am on Prozac, and have been for a while and had no issues. It helped with my depression a lot. But recently, I noticed my depression was coming back and my Dr. upped the dosage. Now, I am manic. I have never been manic before. And It is so overwhelming I do not know how to handle it. I'm restless, and racing thoughts, and talkative, and talk loud, talk fast, never complete my thoughts before going to a new one, cannot sleep much, do not eat much, overly excited over nothing, and I've started to get aggravated super easily. I do not like this one bit. I saw my dr. again and he put me on Lamictal for the mania. I do not know why, but this frightens me that my diagnosis changed. And these racing thoughts keep getting more and more. To anyone who has had a similar experience, how did you handle your first time being manic? how long before it goes away?

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
