You know, I might just have Bipolar II.
I'm sitting here now crying. Just out of the blue. Well not quite out of the blue, I had a list of things to do today (about 25), I got about 7 done this morning, two of them appointments downtown (you know, the psych appt., and something else), and a few unexpected todo's. I was hyper, productive, content, and impatient. Keeping in mind that I only got about 5 hours of sleep tonight.
I get home and continue working on the list, but get sidetracked and end up spending way too long on one thing. So it turns 4pm, and realize I need to plan out my vacation so I can email it tommorow and oh crap I have to study my algebra and do homework etc. etc., so I start planning the vacation... can't concentrate... too tired.... I start working on algebra, can't concentrate... too tired.... start doing target practice with my rataan bow... can't concentrate...
And now the mania has drifted into deep depression.
Was gonna have a beer to relax... nah that'll make me even more tired
Was gonna have some xanax to relax... nah again, makes me too tired
So left with stimulants... exercise, and nicotine.
Okay maybe if i can get myself to go out and play some b-ball or jog or bike it'd help.... I agree I know it would.... but I'm afraid of seeing people right now. I don't want to be seen by them.
This has been happening alot lately, these cycles, and I was always told that bipolar is a state in which you are depressed for days/weeks/months then manic for days/weeks/months, not manic/elated half the day then suicidally depressed the other half. So me and my doc figured cyclothymia, not bipolar. But these depressive episodes are getting worse and worse. Thinking about SI but didn't cause I got it out with tears.
I don't know, am I bipolar? Depressed? What is going on in my head
