I cannot for the life of me seem to shake this! My body just wants to collapse, while my mind spins aimlessly out of control...
Anyone know where I'm coming from??
I feel like I am on the downslope of deppression yet my mind won't let me be. I am aggitated and I even got into it with a lady at Target. My patience level is nill and I just want to sleep because all of the excess energy in my noggin! It's killing me!!!

Okay rant over...

Thanks for reading!

My counselor reminded me, "sometimes sleep is what you need."

With the Target woman, "Shit happens."

I know how you feel. I wanted to pull my hair out and scream but I was too tired to do it.

Where you are at, is where I get lost...is it dysphoric mania or agitated depression? Or a mixed state? Or super rapid cycling? But def been there done that. The only way out, that I know of, is thru the right meds. Even the pdocs can't answer your question. But hang in there, it will get better!

I feel your pain, it bites a big one. Yep, that's how I felt most of the time (dysphoric manic) I believe it's called. It got so bad a couple of months ago that I couldn't function & had to just take 2 weeks off of life. Then got the Ultradian Rapid Cylcling DX. The meds really do help now. Hope you feel better soon.

Do the high dose chemical sleep. Add in a little alcohol if you drink.

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
