tash28 Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 Im so hyper and am loving. I think people think Im crazy but I dont care ha.WONT BE ABLE TO SLEEP TO EXCITED NOT REALLY SURE WHY THO.tomorrow will be a good day I can feel it in my bones hahaAny way hope you all are ok
malign Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 Tash, please take care. The impulsive behavior that comes with mania is just as destructive as (and often much more quickly than) the depressions.Do you have someone who can take charge of your finances (like credit cards) temporarily? Do you have a psychiatrist you can call?It's important to keep yourself safe.
tash28 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Report Posted March 1, 2011 mmmmmmm yes I do have a habit of spending all my money when feeling like this maybe I should ask my parents to look after my money good thinking malign.I dont have a psychiatrist that I can phone but I do have a crisis team I can contact if I need to but Im not in any crisis malign im real happy got a massive smile on my face this is good im going to enjoy sorry you prob think crazy lady haha
malign Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 No, tash, I know too many people with bipolar to use the word "crazy" much.It's part of the disease, that's all.You might want to ask for company as much as possible, too, depending on how impulsive you tend to get. Someone you trust can talk you down from, say, trying to take parachuting lessons or something. Not to mention seeing that psychiatrist: bipolar disorder tends to get worse when it's untreated (it's called the kindling effect.)
tash28 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Report Posted March 1, 2011 parachuting lessons I had to laugh as at the same time I thought that could be fun. Talking about fun things to do I have always wanted to do tree surfing thats not to dangerous. Maybe one day I will get the chance to do it. anyone got any ideas of fun activities that they would like to try post them here
malign Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 Tree surfing? What's that? :-)Doesn't sound like an activity that the trees enjoy ...Face it, tash: at the moment, you'd probably laugh at anything I said. ;-)Please try to stay safe, won't you?We'd like you to be in one piece at the end of the day.
tash28 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Report Posted March 1, 2011 a link for tree surfing so you can look at someone doing it. I think I have done the link right let me know if I havnt malign as will try again for you
tash28 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Report Posted March 1, 2011 malign did you see the tree surfing on you tube. what do you think looks fun erh.
malign Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 I'm sorry, tash: work won't let me view YouTube, so I'll have to wait until I get home.I'd be worried about splinters, though, just from the sound of it. Not to mention angry squirrels. :-)Take care of yourself, the next few days, okay?
tash28 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Report Posted March 1, 2011 haha the squirrels could join in with the tree stuffing they dont need to get angry hehe.Anyway enjoy the rest of your day/evening at work
shanrucas Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Tash..you so funny, I worry though, but I am also pleased that maybe you recognize this as it is. Take Maligns suggestions on keeping company while you enjoy you "high". I just hope you don't have a crash landing whether tree surfing or not.Maybe you are having a good time because it's my 50th birthday today:D
tash28 Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Posted March 2, 2011 Wishing you a Happy Birthday shannon. Hope you have a lovely day. what have you got planned for you birthday.
shanrucas Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Thanks Tash..forgot to mention on my birthday thread that a bunch of my friends are taking me out to dinner on friday..I actually get to go out, Im so excited.
tash28 Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Posted March 2, 2011 Hey shannonI bet you cant wait to go for dinner with some friends. I hope you have a lovely time you deserve it shannon. Im excited for you shannon as I know you dont get to do things like this much. YIPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
tash28 Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Posted March 2, 2011 Still on this high didnt sleep at all last night dont look like im going to get much sleep tonight. I wanna come down from this now but know when I do it prob wont be pleasant so wanna stay up. If only I could sleep need sleep got to sleep.
shanrucas Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 I was just going to ask how you were doing. I hope you can manage some sleep so that you won't crash to hard. I can't remember, but are you taking any mood stablizers? when I am manic my pdoc wants to make sure I take my seroquel so that I can sleep at night, it also helps keep those manic moments under control a bit. but , then medication works different for different people. Take a hot bath and read a book and see if that helps. Good luck..and thanks for the birthday party.
Guest ASchwartz Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Shanrucas is right, are you on medications for the Bipolar and are you taking the meds?Allan
tash28 Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Posted March 3, 2011 Sorry not replied sooner first day back to work today as had a few days off sick. Phoned my doctor today as last night was the second day off not sleeping and am still very much on a high still. I cant get to see my doctor til next friday so Im hoping I dont have to much of a crash landing when I come down from this high.
tash28 Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Posted March 4, 2011 The longest time that I have not slept for has been a week. Linda that must have been horrible for you having to go a month without sleep. Im now begining to feel Like I hate all this shit all the time. I hate these ups and down and then the crash landings. I know the high is on its way down as all day I have not been able to focus on anything. In work if people talked to me I just couldnt take in what they were saying if I was talking on the phone there would be this long pause. Still dont think I am going to be able to sleep mind is not ready to shut down completly. Im going to go and have a bath and listen to some music to see if that will relax me enough so I can get a couple hours before I have to get up to feed the horses.
shanrucas Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 Hi Tash..I am glad you made an appointment to see doctor. I hope you can get something to help you out..in the meantime I want you to know I layed out a bunch of fluffy pillows for you, so that when you come back down you won't have such a hard landing...its the thought that counts. Let me know how you are doing, I hope that you can get some sleep tonight.
tash28 Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Posted March 4, 2011 Hi linda and shannonThank you so much for you support.I didnt get any sleep last night. But am feeling like I dont want today to be here. Because I know I have to face the world again today.Thanks shannon for laying the pillows out for me so i can have a soft landing that is such a nice thought.Linda I do drink lots of coffee but do stay off the stuff when I am on a high as I know that does not help meI hope you both are well
