im anxious, cant stop thinking...get intrusive, angry thoughts, dont sleep much. Im in what my gf calls another one of my "I wana go on the moon and just watch the world explode" knd of moods. (cause I always wind up saying that at some point.) lol. then I get all these incredible ideas. and they really are great ideas. and I wana tell everybody. and nobody cares! and it really just pisses me off! so when people come off too dull to me, I have to check myself. even if they ARE dull. lol.

@david81672able I can relate, I remember before feeling so on top of the world, like I could do anything, I honestly thought I was going to win the Nobel Prize for discovering some new life altering thing. Even though I didn't discover anything...LOL

I had one manic episode and I was thinking I needed to take more chances, and I thought I could solve all poverty in the world. I would hire homeless people and try to resale garage sale and estate stuff. I fell asleep at a stop light at 3 am in the morning from lack asleep and a cop tapped on the window. I thought I am fine now, I am on Lithobid (Lithium) two in the morn. & one at night, one Wellbutrin in the morn. and one 0.5 Xanax in the morn and half at night. I have had no more episodes.

I was a Psychiatric Nurse for 20 Years & have nursed many,many people who were psychotic...one patient described her manic episodes as going in a really fast car with the window wide open. You are a very brave lady to discuss such difficult subjects on the internet & its great that you have insight into your difficulties.Brave people such as yourself will help to break down the stigma that unfortunately still surrounds mental illness.

I'm glad there are videos like this so I can hear what goes through people's minds that have this. I feel like this a lot. Like right now let's say. I'm really content and happy with everything and I've felt like this since yesterday. I feel really innovative and productive and my mind literally feels like it's going 1,000 mph. which can scare me and give me anxiety a lot because my thoughts jump from one to the next without any reason. It feels really unorganized.

I have a severe case of Bipolar. And Im really happy and energetic and I say things without thinking about them and I get mad sometimes at really nothing. I talk really fast and I just want to run. I feel like Im unstoppable and that nothing can bring me down. I get light headed sometimes. Im usually always at mania. I get angry eaisly and I start screaming and hyperventilating..I end up fighting with my best friend and say things I dont mean and then the next morning I dont remember anything.

You have just described what I am going through right now! I am taking me meds but I am full manic. I keep doing random things, like hyper cleaning and organizing. I haven't slept more than 2 -3 hours a night for about 2 weeks, but at work am super productive. I swing between happy and angry in a split second.Like I was changing cable from one side of the room to the other it wasn't going well, so I ripped it though the dry wall...Not the smartest thing to do. Thanks for sharing, I am not alone.

Mania sounds like when I experimented with drugs like speed, extasy, pervitin, cocaine and psychotic is exactly like my experiments with LSD, mushrooms, bella donna and stuff like that.

I can imagine that having this without takying any illegal substances is something compeltely different than if I decide I wanna go manic/psycho and take appropriate drug (not doing this for some years atm., unfortunetelly).

Was interresting to me to get know how it is all similar. PEACE, be well

/watch?v=gXkmb5s8Igc&feature=r­esults_main&playnext=1&list=PL­3F6D108079A142BB this is a great documentary on bipolar disorder that Bipolar people and people without Bipolar should check out. After I was diagnosed I showed this documentary to a lot of my family and I feel like it helped them understand things.

One thing (out of many) that happens when I'm manic is that I talk and talk and talk, and when other people are not moving fast enough in the conversation it gets aggravating.

For all the bipolar people here I suggest this book that helped me understand and deal with my bipolar. "The Bipolar Disorder Survival Guide: What You and Your Family Need to Know" by David J. Miklowitz. Parts of the book can get a bit more\ informational stuff that is a little more boring but a lot of the book has practical ways to deal with bipolar. One thing I like about this book is that throughout the book are quotes from people with bipolar making it feel more personal. hope it helps
