I'm watching videos of people having hypomanic episodes and honestly, they all look pretty normal to me :redface: If that is what hypomania looks like, I'm pretty sure I have bipolar :redface:

I know. I just really, really don't want this diagnosis and to be on meds. But this clearly isn't normal and I'm pretty sure other people are starting to notice.

For me it was when people started noticing that i began thinking something wasnt right, then i had a huge breakdown and was reffered to a psych, and honestly starting new meds was the best decision i made. I *think* im mostly stable now which compared to what i was a year ago is a huge step, though im fully aware its probably not forever

I could barely formulate sentences and was openly telling people I wanted to quit work and die yesterday . Today, I couldn't shut up because I was so hyper and was too distracted to actually be productive. A part of me just wants to have a breakdown so I have no choice but to get help. I hate my head and that I can't just sort this out. I don't know whether I should go and drink coffee so I can continue to feel awesome like this, or drink wine so I can calm down and try and sleep. I can't even sit still right now, it feel like I want to crawl out of my skin.

Im not a professional on bipolar but the episodes dont often change that quickily one day the the next, they are aften a week or more at a time, some episodes can last months.

I think BPD moods fluctuate much more rapidly

They don't normally fluctuate this rapidly for me, it normally is weeks/months. Idk what's going on right now.

Now I'm drunk, still agitated but no longer happy. What a clever move. I'm such a pathetic excuse for a human being. Maybe I should impulse buy a load of **** to make myself feel better? LOL. What a fool. I want a break from my head and all of this nonsense. There is nothing actually wrong with me, I'm just pathetic.

From your posts on here you are not a pathetic excuse for a human being at all.
Going to a halloween party in 2 hours. Really worried about my eyes rolling.

Man, I used to get drunk alone a lot too. :console: It doesn't help and just makes you feel bleak and *****y. You're not pathetic at all. You seem like a really nice person. Wouldn't advise going on a spending spree - it makes you feel better now but later it'll feel crappy. Maybe (depending on where you live) you could go for a walk?
Having to act like I’m ok when I’m not is tiring as ****
Ahhhh love a good old intrusive thought.
Missed you
Guess who's experiencing dystonia again. :awesome:

Trying my best to hold it back without taking klonopin and failing.

Been taking cogentin which is meant to take 2-4 days to kick in. Been taking it for a week. :sigh:

Though I did manage to control it on Saturday vs the party. :wizard:


How're you doing?

Hope it kicks in soon. Hope the party went well :smile:

I'm not doing great and still drinking to try and feel better like the idiot that I am. Thanks for you support the other day. And thanks to you to, @Cote1
