I got up early yesterday at six because I had that allergy appointment. Then I went to bed at midnight and woke up at 4:30 tossing and turning. Finally I called Caleb at 5:30 (he works early). I drove to Panera and sat in the parking lot in the dark for 20 minutes waiting for the store to open at 6. I ordered a bagel with cream cheese and got a decaf coffee but I’m still wide awake! I have therapy on zoom in 2 hours. I’m not used to zoom therapy but for some reason I can’t go to see her in person. Should I tell my case manager to tell my Pdoc about this? My next appointment isn’t for 11 more days. I don’t want my meds increased because every time we do that I get more/worse side effects.

It is definitely something you should tell your case manager to relay to your pdoc. I'm not sure but do you overspend when manic? If so, think of how much damage you can do to your bank account in 11 days? I overspend when manic, and I know my bank account really takes a hit, and that causes MAJOR arguments with my H.

I already racked up my credit card last month. I just got my deposit and need to pay my bills today. I can’t spend that money!

How concerned do you feel about this? If you really analyze yourself right now, are there any symptoms you see that tend to show up right before mania? How quickly do you tend to escalate?
I mean, honestly if I didn't sleep well one night I'd give it another night and see if I still felt I didn't need the sleep before reaching out (I usually have sleeping issues and my manias take up to a week before things become any sort of real problem), but if I chatted with someone from my team I would definitely mention it, or if you have other concerning symptoms or spiral quickly it'd be good to reach out. __________________ [Insert thought-provoking and comedic quote here] |

Maybe I just had too much on my mind and that’s why I didn’t sleep much last night.

I contacted my case manager about this and she said she’d tell Pdoc but neither of them got back to me. I’m worried about tonight’s sleep- or rather lack thereof.

My case manager said she relay my message to my pnurse practitioner but neither one got back to me today. I feel uncared for.
