My pen pal since 2003 just replied to my latest email saying he won’t be replying to my emails even though he reads them all. I sent way too many with being hypo and manic and still writing him. Lots has been going on and I thought I was just updating him but his job is a deluge of paperwork and he can’t write me back. I’m sad. I knew my mania would drive him away but this hurts. I thought he understood my recent hyper graphia . Since he still reads my emails I wrote and said sorry for the deluge. But he won’t reply now. He’s too busy.

Words can’t say how sad I am.

He wrote me back! He was in the drs office waiting to be called back. Says everything between us is great! Whew!

Luckily my friends still love me even through hyper texting and emailing for almost 2 months in the throes of hypomania and then drug-induced mania.

I'm sorry, I think I'm expecting hypergraphy. Maybe you can write here or on your blog instead. We'll write back.

I do have that thread “Manic?” I started on October 1st. I know everybody here understands. I have too much time on my hands especially since I’ve been getting up at 4 since starting gabapentin.

Completely understand, I'm averaging 4 hours a night.

Yeah I’m worried I’ll go back into hypomania. I do go to sleep around 9/9:30 these days. But I wake up at 2,3,4…..

Can you slowly push back your sleep schedule to 11 pm?

I’ve been going to sleep at 9:30 pm but waking up at 2, 3, or 4 am. I guess my body thinks that’s enough sleep!

Glad he wrote back and everything is fine between the two of you.
