I've never felt this weird before so I thought I would ask you guys for advice on it (why I feel like this, how to stop it etc)
I dont really know how to explain it since i always feel like im exagerrating things. I just keep getting urges to do stupid things, like roll around on the floor and throw glasses and claw my eyes out.
The only way I know how to explain it is by personifying it. Bellatrix Lestrange i think is the closest I can get to it.
Arghhhh. Help? i just want this to go away cause if this is what its like to be manic, sod this for a game of soldiers.
I can't help you with why you feel that way, could be number of reasons. When I get manic I always feel it helps to keep busy, such as walking, exercising or even writing how I'm feeling. I feel like it helps get it out in a much safer way.
Also if you have been feeling like this for a while it may be helpful to talk to someone if you feel able to.
heya hun, I know exactly what you mean, I'm in a manic episode at the moment and it is soo sooo sooo hard to not be bouncing of the walls right now, I just keep moving my leg so i'm not 'sitting still' and my brain is racing nonesene not even words jst like fuzz at 10000mph.
Being manic isn't fun. It's late now but try and do housework/go for a run, something to get that unwanted energy out of you. I know how frustrating it is though when you can't do that. I've even tried playing with relaxation/mindfulness cds. It helps slightly, might be worth investing in. Mine was a £5 from my PCT
I don't know where you are but maybe theres something around you that does a similar thing?
Hope your feeling better soon and feel free to PM me at anytime.
Life can be beautiful if you let it.
Step back, breathe and take it in
I calmed down a few hours after I posted but it was so scary. I just felt so weird and so hyper but it wasn't hyper bubbly, it was hyper as in psychotic hyper.
The bf thinks I might have BPD but im too scared to go to the GPs incase they say im making it up and say that feeling like this is normal, because its not.
yeah i don't know if that's manic or not, but i know that state of mind... it is almost psychosis. you realize your thoughts are not right, but you have little control over them. the thing is, if you are getting to where you want to do things that are entirely illogical, you may get to a point where you are doing something very dangerous/harmful and you don't even quite know it. so i would go in if i were you. if you've been to one who is unhelpful, try to switch. i know some of them do very unprofessional things at times, but there are some really good doctors out there too. you may need meds, or maybe you just need some counseling to talk it through. but it really can't hurt to get checked out. it'd be great if your bf can go, but if not, you need to go anyway.
