Slightly Hypomanic

Today I got a much needed hypomania. When I get hypomanic, I clean. I now have a nice clean kitchen and vacuumed dining room. I cleaned the stove, counters, even the oven door. I packed up our steamer that we haven't used in a couple weeks and put it away. I went for a walk to burn off energy and did a 21 minute mile! I used to do 30 minute miles, so this is big for me. I like walking at night. It's peaceful. I wear a light colored shirt and reflective tags on my belt. I just have to worry about the spiders. They are large and like to come out at night. I saw one the size of the top of my thumb today. Luckily it was running away from me. I'm probably going to need klonopin to go to sleep tonight. I hope I sleep well.. last night I woke up 60 times! I saw that and knew that was why I was hypomanic. I was also up from 1 am to 2:30 am. I'm just going to take the klonopin when I take the rest of my pills for the night. Hopefully I can get some good sleep and be up by noon to go to work at 1. This way I can avoid the control freak of a nurse. I should also talk with my real boss (I have the boss of my section, and then the volunteer services boss) about the problems I'm having with the nurse. I'm worried about confronting her, but it's the only way to get the problem resolved. At least I'll have some positive stuff to talk about on Friday when I see my therapist.

great job on the walking, you will be running before you know it. I walk really fast when I am full of energy or really mad. I never timed my mile but I do 3 miles in 50 minutes. good to talk to the head, sometimes you just have to because noting elese is working, hope it goes well. good on the cleaning but I hope you got sleep. hugss

Thats so great you are exercising and getting out to walk ! I havnt been able to motivate myself to do it lately :(
Oh how well i remember the days of being a nurse and having to answer to a control freak head nurse... its like some of them are on a power trip just because they are in charge. I hope all goes well when you talk with her about the issues.
