I can't tell if I'm manic or possibly have something like schizoaffrctive.
I keep getting voices and visions, and I'm feeling hyperactivity. Yet, I am getting a normal amount of sleep now, sometimes even 11. I know the visions and voices are fake, as my therapist has worked with me a lot on grounding skills. I have had voices for a couple of years, but never recognized them until now. So take that into consideration The only "dangerous" thing I did today was drive to work at 93mph. But people in Massachusetts often drive 80-85 on the highway, so 93 isn't that much higher. I was competing with another driver to be the best. But this could be a combo of BPD and schizoaffective, now that I think of it. No reckless shopping or anything. I'm happy, but sometimes really agitated. I dunno. I also have ADHD, so I can't speak much about hyperactivity or distractability. |

Competing with driving is dangerous, no matter what the dx is.

Are you taking meds for the voices and visions?

I don't know--do you hear the voices just when manic, usually? Or is this something that happens regardless?

Yes, I'm taking rexulti as my AP, but my pdoc left the practice and all I have left is samples that he gave me. I have to wait until mid April to see my new pdoc.
I don't know when I hear the voices during mania or not mania. I've never really looked at that. I only went, "huh, sounds like I had voices before. I recognize that, not that I think of it." So it's more of a realization about the past. |

Hey there Blue!
Massachusetts drivers do go very fast!  Been there, done that.Please be careful. When you have mentioned voices here in the forum, especially the man and, sometimes, the lady, you also usually report a shift in mood. I don't know if this observation helps you in any way or not. Check in with your therapist about this, too. Have you considered journaling now that you live alone? There's nobody around to "find" it right now.  WC

Driving at 93mph is "dangerous" .Looking at the speedo at 93mph PRICELESS.
