I am going through a manic phase again. I went on a cleaning spree and cleaned the house. I hAVE SO MUCH ENERGY I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT. I kind of felt this coming on but tried to ignore it. So bare with me now as im on a high ride...........

Wow, you really are behind on sleep. I am upset with your pdoc for not calling you back. That is irresponsible. She should have had a plan in place when she changed your meds for handling any problems. Surely she could have seen this manic episode as being a possible consequence of the med change. Grrr. Please rest as much as you can today. I hope therapy isn't upsetting as it won't take much to upset you after you have missed this much sleep. Hang in there and keep us posted.

ok it is 82 degrees outside here today wahooooooo just what i needed i love it. i walked a long walk before just to clear my head it felt so good to walk in the nice warm sun with a nice warm breeze blowing. I went to my theropy appmt today and my therapist noticed something different about me. I ask what it was she said i seem happy i told her i was in a manic episode and funny how she could tell something was different. well we went over a lot of things today in theropy. we made a plan in case i got depressed and or suicidal she made me make a plan of things to do or to call someone or talk to someone on here or facebook. My therapist was surprised that my dad didn't know anything that was going on with me. We are going to work on that in future visits. My dad does not know anything that is goin on with me. I thing is he don't ask,I don't tell. He don't even ask if im doing ok or need anything. owell i am babbling here so i shall go for now. hope everyone is doing well...... as i go on my manic way,,,,,,

ok I am realllllllllly tired. a few min here a few min there last night ugggg my mind just would not quit last night. I feel like a walking zombie. Where is time going to it was just sun now it is wed hhmmmm where did that time go? Did I lose time somewhere or is it because I am manic things are wizzing by. I hope this manic episode ends soon I cant stand it anymore. It is nice in a way yes to be in the urphoric state and all energized but on the other hand I don't like it either. Well another nice day today going to be in the 80's so walking is in store again today and some outdoor activity of some sort. ok have a great day everyone bye for now...
stevebhopes
You have got to talk to your pdoc and get a plan together about bringing you down to earth. I hope you will be able to do that. If you don't sleep soon your mind will come unhinged for sure. Thinking of you and praying that today will be a more restful day.

I have called my pdoc 2 times already she has not called me back yet. I know I need sleep badly I feel like a walking zombie.. I am soooooooo tired.
kittycat72d
sleeeeeeeeeeep please I need sleep.......
kittycat72d
ok was up all night last night was tossing and turning a lot so got up and started moving some stuff around and organizing things for when I move upstairs. I am so wired but verrrrrrrrrrry tired. I can feel a slight difference though like I may be coming down a bit just maybe well see. I hope anyway, I desparately need sleep...... My schedule is all messed up. oh I finally got my pdoc and right now she don't want to put me on anything new she wants to wait this out she told me and see how the next cylcle goes if there is one which I am sure there will be. My doc don't want to put me on anything because of my blood suagars spiking .ok off to do some laundery now bye for now.
stevebhopes
I think your pdoc should have come up with a plan to bring you down a bit and enable you to sleep. I guess the blood sugar issue throws everything off. I keep some meds around in case I go manic so I can sleep. See if you can get an emergency plan together to avoid this in the future. I hope you can get some sleep soon!

I am starting to come down I think a little. Lets hope I don't crash to hard now being I was up for so long. I just went to the chiropractor and got adjusted it helped some my back was so tight and my temp was up and my back was in flamed. this happens everytime I get manic and my chiro can tell. He gave me some melatonin to take before bed I am gong to try it. I will try anything at this point. My doc sucks sometimes I swear. ok have to go get a few things done now bye for now.
kittycat72d
yes I am coming down I can feel the depression setting in:( this is the part I hate. I was manic for a week this time longest so far I think for me. I am going to take the melatonin before bed tonight to see if that helps with my sleep. I am on overload here with lack of sleep. wish me luck with the sleep..
stevebhopes
I hope the melatonnin helps. Maybe tomorrow will be better if you can just get some sleep. I sure hope you do. Hang in there my friend, this too shall pass.

Hang in there. Have you tried relaxing your mind? Don't do things that continue the mania, like busy busy stuff...instead have you tried yoga or meditation? I dont get manic like you do...mostly depressed. But when I do, I slow down if possible or burn both ends of a candle.
kittycat72d
I have tried meditation cant keep my concentration long enough to do it. I am coming down now and crashing. The melatonin helped a lot last night. It knocked me out or the combo I was just exhausted I slept form like 1130 till 5. I am glad I got some sleep though I was about to go batty geesh I cant live or survive without sleep. thanks for reading and listening to me babble during my manic times. I just waited it out a whole week this time going manic akkkka whole week with very very little sleep a few hours here and there it just didn't cut it.
stevebhopes
I am so glad you slept!
