Personality Disorders Support Group
Personality disorders form a class of mental disorders that are characterized by long-lasting rigid patterns of thought and behaviour. Personality disorders are seen by the American Psychiatric Association as an enduring pattern of inner experience and behavior that deviates markedly from the expectations of the culture of the individual who exhibits it.
recently i've been doing really good....things are going great in my life....on friday i was feeling great and i was SO happy.....the thing was, it was a different kind of happy.....like i've been super happy before where i'm all smiles and just feel really positive and everything.....on friday i felt really positive and everything, but...it felt different.....i can't describe it any other way and i was wondering: was i manic that day??? like there was a rational part of me that was like, "okay you're really happy and you should be, it's okay to feel that way..." but i couldn't calm myself down.....it was like i was so wound up and i felt like i was so happy that i was spinning almost out of control....that's manic right???
I've had that feeling, too, but I'm not bi polar.
Usually, I've hopped myself up on coffee, lol. OR, I'm in a good mood, but in some way, it's also triggering something in a bad way.
When you are spinning, I'd try to just SLOW down. Sit. Breathe.
Don't try to label it or put it in a box... just be in the moment, feel everything, and see if after a while, some insight comes.
We are very intelligent human beings. You just have to listen. If the voice is too soft, then concentrate and listen harder.
Hugs.
Glad you seem to have found what you're looking for.
