i started a post yesterday about my "dreams" feeling like they were real. I'm going to see my pdoc tomarrow and how do i explain this to him. I really don't want ot start playing with my meds anymore. WHen i do this i never feel like myself, but at this point i don't know what "myself" means anymore, and i have a bad reaction to anti psycis. It seems like there is no end to this almost like its progreesing. how do I explain all this so he understands... I know you guys will (hopefully) because you have the same illness. I'm sorry if this doesn't make much sense my mind is racing in manic mode

i made this account because i hope this reaches someone who can understand. I feel immense shame and guilt over my past behavior while manic. I have ruined relationships with friends and family members, gotten tattoos that i dont want, done things that make me cringe. The weight of the self hatred gets to be too much sometimes. I feel like a burden. Nobody understands. I hate myself today.

Hope some of this helps, and I do wish you the best when you see your pdoc.
Remember this isnt a court case, youre not on trial, hes there for your benefit. TRy telling him what u posted yest - at worst print it out & give it to him.
I dont mention little things as i feel my probs are insignificant in comparison to others - (only slightly symptomatic!!)who the hell am I to judge? Thats why I go see him! There are so many related conditions that something else you may say, will help him to help u further.. I love my mania dont wanna let go of it-cant function without it. Just gotta find the balance - even if u sit there and babble, they will manage to get the info out of you..
My shrink reports its very hard to keep me on track..Ha ha..
Chin up - go do it - ifyou get yrself in a state, you always come out saying **** forgot to mention that..
Hey I get exactly the same way, I think he wont believe me and im making it all up - its painful as well..cant be a long appointment coz they dont do them!! Get it over with - apologies for back babbling...
