My depression is gone, but...
I woke up today (wide awake at 2am) and my depression is all gone. Which should be great news, right? Well, no! Because the reason for it is, now I'm manic. Good thing I had a scheduled virtual appt with my therapist this morning. He could tell right when the session started something was different. He also noticed that I couldn't sit still in my chair. We talked about somethings I can do, but usually with me, there's no stopping my mania. I can have meds increased, which will help a little, but I'll just have to wait it out. The feeling of being ontop of the world, when I'm manic, is always mixed with fear because I now a crash will come. Usually the worst the mania, the worst the crash. Hopefully this manic episode won't be that bad. I happen to have a scheduled appt with my psychiatrist on monday, we'll see what he says.
To all my friends reading this, I wish you a great day!

Thanks Mich! A great day to you as well!!
Big hug Mich.... I hope that taking a little extra medication will help ... It's great that you have a pdoc appt soon.... xo
I'm really sorry you're dealing with mania. I'm glad your therapist offered some suggestions about what you can do. Even if his tips don't help much, perhaps they will be enough to put a cap on the high or soften the crash. In any case, it never hurts to try them.
It's good to hear that you have an appointment with your psychiatrist on Monday. Thinking positive and praying that you'll be better by then and won't need any med adjustments. Sending a hug your way.
