I am very much bipolar I go up and down all day.... all the time...

still working on stablizer

I so love the manic/mania, others around me don't.

But this Depression side kills me.........

I started out okay today breakfast...
few chores
exercised

Then boom

Here I am I CAN'T TAKE IT.

They only dang time I feel a glow is when I'm hyper.......... eff!

So some where between breakfast and now - DROPPED completley.

Yes, I've done everything I'm suppose to do... but

What's left is caffeeine...... But I always have another chemical imbalance of sort....... not sure... anixety, shaky, pulls me up but worth...

So I finished a glass........... Hasn't TOUCHED this Depression mood.

This to shall pass, always does, but in mean time... don't see it....

The roller coaster again.

eff

I know the roller coaster is hard. I like the mania, too, except when I do crazy things while I'm manic!
Are you building up on your mood stabilizer?

I had some breakthrough hypomania from taking codeine a while ago. (won't do that again)

I decided that I would be my whiny obnoxious hypomanic self to my NP until she gave up and adjusted my meds LOL.

We were going up on Lamictal anyway, so 900 mg of Lithium and 100 of Lamictal whacked down that drug induced hypomania right away. I had been on 600 of lithium and 50 of lamictal.

If the stabilizer isn't working, call your Pdoc in your manic phase all the time until they give up . Be sure not to overdo this, I always say that "one should not make angry a person who can Baker Act you". (sick twisted Bipolar humor).
