Bipolar Disorder Support Group
Bipolar disorder is not just a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders marked by periods of abnormally high energy and euphoria, often accompanied by bouts of clinical depression. This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
I have never been this high before. Or at least I can't recall ever being this high and exhilarated before. My thoughts are racing, my head is buzzing and spinning, I want to scream cos I can't keep it all in, my eyes feel like they're about to start rolling around, I wanna jump and run and spin and skip and bounce and dance and love and AAAAHHHHHHHH! I can't sit still but I can't move fast enough. I want to move faster. I want to be turbo charged. Zoooom zoooom! Sigh. Ugh. Ah! Dammit! I'm pumped. Is this what drugs do? Like molly and shit. Am I manic? Because if this is hypomania it's way different than it used to be. Is it different for everyone? As in, a different intensity. So maybe my mania is your hypo or something like that. Done pounding the keys now....
(1) I've never done drugs so I can't compare
(2) YES, THAT IS MANIA (I Have done mania, so I Do know)
....Now then. O M G, do I know how good you feel. WOW, do I. And you SO need to let someone in on it, and possibly get some Help. *sigh* I SO hate to say that....but it's times like this when we honestly think we can Fly Off A Building And Keep Going,
and we Can't. You will "come to yourself" later, realizing you have slept with half of Jamaica Or spent $18K on JUNK. Or worse...
So please, pleeeeeeeeeease, trust me and go tell someone you are just a Weensy bit "Over the edge."
Or you will come down and realize you Really don't like yourself.
I know it's great; GOD, I love mania. But our problem is not "feeling good" - it's being out of Balance. Feeling "too good", and later, feeling Really Bad.
Love ya -

Mania is fun....until it isn't
If you continue on this course, psychosis may follow.
Probably a good idea to check in with your Pdoc
