Got Symptoms?

TC, I just wanted to say something I've noticed about you and it's this--you put yourself down a lot. Yes, you are obsessed with sex and have a quirky personality, but you're also very intelligent and have a lot going for you, if you stop to look at it.
Don't put yourself down. We all need to make improvements. I hope you take that in a positive way, cuz that's how I mean it. :>) RE: Got Symptoms?

This same annoying music has been going through my head since 11:00 thursday. Do you have any routines that you go through when having trouble shutting off your brain and getting sleep? I found that the absolute best thing I could do to snap of a manic phase (and usually avoid the crash and burn) was to make sure I never go more than two days straight without at least 6 hours of sleep.

Perhaps I will create a thread that invites more such questions. For now, I hope I have satisfied your curiosity. RE: Got Symptoms?

Id rather be hiv positive and have a sound stable mind than be mentally ill and offensive to people.
The good thing is with a cell one can record oneself while manic and on drugs and in my case realize how obnoctious and annoying I am and stay sober and keep great custody of the mouth and behavior when in such conditions. The problem when high, manic, or delusional the behavior makes sense and seems rational and you just assume others know where you are coming from or have the same sense of humor.

That's pretty much what I was referring to. I've found the same types of things useful when I've had trouble sleeping. (And I've found that getting a decent amount and quality of sleep one of the key things I can do to stay well.) RE: Got Symptoms?

I've been having manic episodes off and on for 25 years and I didn't find out until this last episode that I have pressured speech when I'm manic. I suppose I could have guessed, but much of the behavior is invisible to you when you're manic. Judgement about so many things is just right out the window when you're manic. Until I found out about the pressured speech, I thought that I likely appeared fairly normal when manic. "Whoosh!" I was totally clueless! Knowing that I can be rather mouthy when normal, I feel sorry for the people who have had to deal with me when manic. When I get manic, I become hostile and aggressive. Reflecting on it, I'm sure that, too, looks worse from the outside. If I notice my hostility from the inside while manic, I must appear a right bitch to people looking at it from the outside. |
