I am a man(ia) freak so let's take stock

1. Sex drive override - I think I have calmed down from over self pleasure.

2. Talking out loud to daydreams - Clear sign of mania trip but this time no anxiety?

3. No external pressure - No job or family ripping my small amount of self worth and turning my mood swing to anger and rage.

4. No money problem stress - Getting unemployment money and cash from credit.

5. Trigger? - Got sick with fever and bad neck pain just before mania lift off.

6. Internet messaging - Exchanged email with high school reunion thespian on myspace that was positive, but I may have been alittle hard with some of comments on blogs and myspace comments. Really helped not to isolate myself and have a forum for expressing myself.

7. No crash yet? - Walking,lot of water drinking, and vitamin taking. Helping?

Where'd you get that picture? That is TOO COOL! :-)

Yes, it does sound like you're getting a bit manic - mine comes out in one way that yours does - a lot of emails, IM'ing, etc, to people I haven't emailed or talked to in YEARS! Except, I usually regret it later.

It's great you're being so proactive about the hopefully non-inevitable crash. I need to learn from you!!! I think since you know you're getting manic and you're taking the right steps, you'll avoid it! I'm pulling for you! :-)

Thank you I hoped you would understand. Will there be a trigger for the downward spiral? I quit my family! that'll work- not! I just tried to clean my toilet and tile around it. 3 kinds of bleach like cleaners. I should have taken pics- gross!
