Now here's an on-topic question for yáll |
x-no-archive: yes
I am in the midst of wexpreiencing mood swings. I sued to wonder whether I
was bipolar II, and the question is resurfacing due to the mood swing.
Ok, so here's what has been happening. Ii have been working very hard
lately, simply because there is so much to do at the office. It gives me a
high to work so hard , earlier this week I started feeling invincible and
unaffected by bad news.
Now I'm on my 4th day off and I have been feeling pretty bad since the 1st
day off. So now I wonder why this is happening. Am I down because I am
missing my stimuli? Because now the fatigue has room to kick in? Because I
really am BP 2 ( i doubt it at the moent)? Or because I'm a workaholic?
Because I need to achieve in order to fel good?
Has anyone else out there similar experiences?
I am curious about your thoughts.

I get very shaky with physical work, awkward when moving something like
delicate PC's around (or building them), it's too much to understand. The
next minute, I can see everything in absolute detail. And the freaky thing
is, I get it right. This happens continually throughout time. I am dark,
have to cope and hope, and then the opposite.
It is hell trying to explain the whole thing to everyone, and there is so
much I can't put into words here too. I don't think I'm a workoholic, I
don't think I always want to feel good, although I do like getting things
done and achieved.
As for fatigue, that hits me at all sorts of times. Sometimes with clear
reason, sometimes with no clear reason. Then I get stressed for not knowing
why "all this" is happening. Which will make me fatigued in the end.... so
it goes on.

It can be confusing, can't it? I suspect it will get easier over the course
of time, though. Experience, and all that.
Thank you for your reply.

maybe it's just the end of your adrenaline rush from pushing
yourself so hard at work?

Thank you. You have just declared me sane :)
I do feel better now, on day 6 (and back at work). i took things easy at
work today to try and not program myself to always work really really hard.
I enjoy working hard and I have trouble stopping when I do. Hopefully a slow
day will help me to not create a cycle that would ultimately wear me out.

When I take a vacation, I immediately get sick, usually. I'm convinced
it's an energy-level thing. While I'm living a working life, i have to
maintain an energy level that will meet that life and cope. Everything
in me is geared to coping, including my immune system. When I face
vacation, all that tension and everything involved with it winds down,
and the bugs just stroll in and stomp me. That's how I see it.

Thre's research ont that. It's supposed to be pretty common.

I find these things very interesting. I wish I had more control over them
myself.
