Yeah,I kind of know, there are a few symptoms. One is that my ears ring (but they are doing that right now). and I'm feeling buzzed and the other is that I end up super productive. Talk faster and louder and so on.
Time for me to attempt sleep.
Night night xx

"I know you're sad, so I won't tell you to have a good day. Instead, I advise you to simply have a day.
Stay alive, feed yourself well, wear comfortable clothes, and don't give up on yourself just yet.
It'll get better. Until then, have a day."
Haha, one of my housemates just shouted at another housemate for having his TV up too loud. Dramas!

Send me some good vibes this week please lovelies! I'm doing all I can to add some stability to my situation so good housing and work vibes are much needed! Love to you all. How is everyone this morning?
Leaves lots of good vibes for you. I hope you get some stability.
I feel like I'm powered by stardust which is to say ever so slightly hypomanic. It feels so good and being sensible seems like the boring option. I wish so badly I was in the movies and there would be no consequences for giving in and seeing where it flies.
I hope you all got some sleep and that your move goes well today Hannah
Thank you Sarah. Is there anything you can do to help get it out of your system? Measured risk taking like rock climbing or talking to strangers in a safe setting or running a long way? Sorry if these are silly suggestions!
*sending good vibes your way* I haven't done ANYTHING I have needed to do yet. This turning on my new laptop thing scares me lol.
Being sensible might seem like the boring option right now but you will thank yourself in the long run. I do understand though. What can you do today that can help control it?
Hannah good luck with your move today!

Thank you Leigh. I got one of my main things done. I managed to remember my customer reference number I haven't used for over 6 years and it made one of my tasks a huge amount easier. It was a 10 digit number! I pretty much think I'm a genius now :p
I do not envy you with your new laptop...scary times...
Whoop go you. I am so **** at remember stuff like that.
I need some motivation. I have just put some food in the oven (that's something) I think because I'm hanging around before going to uni it's harder. My lecture isnt until 16:15 so I'm just like I have ALL the time. Realistically I don't.
I did get 72% on my assignment though. First A I have ever got in my life and I thought it was **** lol.

Well done on remember the customer reference number Jill, I'm terrible at remembering those things!!
Sprinkles some motivation on Leigh!
Thanks, I am trying to be boring and sensible! Doing physical things tends to make things worse so I'm trying keep busy with things that involve sitting still but are involved enough that they keep my attention. My colleagues are just having to put up with me being extra chatty today!
I'm not sure if my highs are what you would call manic or hypomanic, but they're usually accompanied by a sort of underlying tension and amidst the flying thoughts there's a lot of room for bad stuff to creep in. I just wanted to check you didn't have the bad stuff sitting there underneath the high. It seems like maybe you're just all good!
Urgh the one thing I get is you either are really quiet or really loud and not usually an in between lol.
I don't know, I can't suggest. If you feel like you are over talking to an annoying extent (which I'm sure your not) can you take yourself outside? Even if it's just while you have a cup of tea? I'm assuming you're not a smoker.
I think I'm going to do the laptop stuff after uni. I really need to move though.

Ah I see what you mean. No it does seem to be purely euphoric in nature thankfully!!
I have been going for frequent cups of tea (decaff) because anyone I come across at the kettle has also decided to have a break from work! I'm trying to keep it to work related stuff so at least I'm being vaguely helpful! :P
I don't smoke but sometime head out with smokers for a brew and a natter I might do that next time I see them heading for a cigarette!
That's great tiptoes to have drink frequent cups of tea when you want a small mini break from stresses and strains of work. I find it really relaxing to go outside and get away from the office.
Congrats to Jill for remembering the customer reference number, those numbers can be so tricky.
Have you ever confused a dream with life? Or stolen something when you have the cash? Have you ever been blue? Or thought your train moving while sitting still? Maybe I was just crazy. Maybe it was the 60's. Or maybe I was just a girl... interrupted.
I know what it's like to want to die. How it hurts to smile. How you try to fit in but you can't. How you hurt yourself on the outside to try to kill the thing on the inside. I tried groups, didn't work out just made my depression a lot worse.
Jill, I am sending you ALL the good vibes. Well done remembering the number!
I hope things feel more stable soon, but try to be patient with yourself, such things take time.
Sarah, hopefully your mood won't get out of control high.
It must be hard to be sensible when you feel so good.
I am the same, Leigh, if I wake up around 8 am and I don't start my shift or class until much later in the day I end up just doing nothing and staying in bed :S
Congrats on your grade, you deserve it :D
Good luck with moving day, Hannah!
Treating myself to a major cheat day last night with takeaway, booze and chocolate was a super stupid idea. I was in a lot of pain and it just wasn't worth it. It was gone after sleep, but now my period is trolling me. *feels sorry for self*
Trying to pick myself up and be reasonable productive today.
