What is this feeling?

I feel so alert mentally. Is this what normal people feel? Did exercise do this? Its like my brain has been switched on. Ive been feeling it a few days. I certainly am not feeling insomnia after the exercise but it feels like i am wide awake after i only had tea. Pdoc suggested hypo last time i saw her but dismissed it. Ideas? It feels good for now.

Can you explain what you mean by "alert"? I know you said your "brain has been switched on," but I'm not sure what you mean. Is there anything you've done or noticed because you're hyperaware of your surroundings?

Could be hypo, could be normal. For me, it's often hard to distinguish what my normal is since I've been on psych meds so much of my life.

I hesitate to tell pdoc. All i need is another med change.

I know what you mean. I think I'm a bit hypo, but I'm getting stuff done and actually being productive and not having to take naps every afternoon to get through the day. I don't want it to end. I see my pdoc next week, and, like you, I hesitate to tell him I think that I am hypo. He already told me I'm at the high dosage end of most of my meds, especially because I am on the small side (5'5", 102, 103 lb.). I do NOT want another med change.

I got most of my office cleaned today; it feels awesome! Plus, I'm finally washing all the bed linens. I wash and change the sheets every week, but I haven't washed the quilt, the afghan, the fuzzy covers, and another cover we keep on our bed since I don't remember when. Plus, I remembered to finally dust the ceiling fan over the bed while it was unmade (lots of dust up there).

However, I'm still sleeping a fairly normal amount, 7-8 hours a night.

Are you doing any other hypomanic things?
My head is also alert in a normal way. My pdoc said she could see I was doing well at the moment.

Well i just took Tylenol because im so sore from my first day back to judo yesterday. That is wearing me out! So its been a weird mixture today. I didnt sleep much last night or lately. I had akathesia and pdoc thought thats why but now im not so sure. Could be all 3??
