"Are you feeling hypomanic?"
I went down to Carolina Beach and took a surfing lesson and then surfed a couple of hours today. The waves were up; it's where Florence is due to make landfall early Friday. That's days away and the surf school was still operating normally today. One of my kids also noticed I have been driving faster without realizing it lately. I have been very focused at work and getting a lot done. Sleeping has not been great but not awful. I have been in a good mood a lot lately and a little hyper. Maybe kind of low grade or maybe just life that is working out to look that way right now. I see my pdoc for a scheduled 3 month appointment tomorrow, which is good timing I guess.

I'm actually appreciative when people who care about me ask because I can't tell when I'm beginning to go hypo/manic. It makes me stop and thing, taking stock.
Driving aggressively is definitely a sign for me.

Maybe it could be the start of hypo if those are not things you think you'd do before you got on meds, I think. Do you routinely stick to the speed limit, or do you sometimes speed (not on purpose), you just do it? Because that kind of speeding happens to me a lot. But if my driving is very risky, that is definitely hypo. It's good you are seeing your pdoc soon
