I hope I don't have another irritable/impatient/angry/agitated episodenow... |
Yesterday I felt really depressed, and didn't have enough energy to get
anything but the most essential tasks done. Today I feel a little
restless, and I'm getting things done at twice my normal weekend pace.
I'm on my way out now, with a list of six errands.
In the past, I have noticed a correlation between this "hyperactive" and
"restless" mood, and subsequent angry outbursts when I left the safety
of home or work, triggered by such things as people staring or laughing
at me.
Because of this correlation, I'm worried that I might have another of
those mania-like episodes when I go out now.
I'll try to catch it if/when it starts, and deal with it in an
acceptable way (e.g., avoiding confrontation by going home again if
necessary).

Screw you. May you eternally skew between the twin poles of madness--anxiety
and depression--and never know the gift of sanity again.

I have been through this type of thing and I appear to have it under
control. For me it was understanding that these things were going on
my my head and recognizing when they were happening for me to gain
some measure of control over them. Then I had to try and break the
loop of negative thinking and turn my thoughts somewhere else. The
basic conditions still exist in my head that starts my thinking this
way. It took a lot of effort and I failed a lot of times, but every
time I didn't fail, I made sure to savor the feeling and each time it
became easier until now I automatically go in the right direction and
it is second nature. Sometimes things still get out of control, but
these times are in the minority and I am satisfied with this.
I think that you are already far ahead of the game by understanding
what is happening, that you do not want to feel this way and you have
some control over how you react. You seem to have gone most of the way
towards beating this. I hope this helps some.
Be well,
HoP

I'm glad you have had success with therapy.

what is happening, that you do not want to feel this way and you have

I think I'm still at the very beginning of recognizing, let alone
learning to deal with this and other problems.

But it is a start and you are far ahead of me when I was where you
are.
