scale of -10 to +10, how do you feel right now?

Post Reply New Topic

Since I've been on medication I'm coasting along on a flat 0, neither too high or too low. The only problem is that things associated with my highs and lows are still occurring, but they feel different when absent from mood, and this is causing me some confusion. Not quite sure how to explain it... well, for example, normally when I'm depressed I get fearful and imagine all sorts of bad things happening. I've still had periods of panic, but without the depression, which makes me more likely to take it seriously, since I've always known my depressions are untrustworthy. And my manias are still causing me to be more productive, sleep less, eat less, excercise more, but I'm not feeling high so I don't know if this is normal or me heading in the wrong direction again.

For example, I had less than five hours sleep last night, and today I've finished a draft of a book I was writing, studied Polish for an hour, practised guitar for a few hours, run on the treadmill till I had to give up, faffed on line, and am still not tired. It's only five to four, and I can't seem to stop thinking.

But I'm still feeling a flat 0.

I'm still at a 5 though in regards to what mgran had stated about not being tired despite the lack of sleep.Honestly, I'm not certain I actually get 8full hours of sleep though with taking medication which causes me to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night does not help.Still, I hope that all are able to find some serenity including you mgran..

Thanks ProfessorX... If I am still "tired but wired" in a few days time I'll probably talk to the doctor. I hope you sleep through the night.

8. Not having to go into the city again tomorrow makes Rachel happy.

-8 I am in tears because something - possibly ocd - has made me feel terrible immorality and made me indulge in sadistic feelings and I feel dreadful because of it.

+10

The feeling of depression, and despair that I've been feeling for two weeks, have evaporated. They have vanished and disappeared. I'm listening to The Kinks on YouTube, my usual 50% of the time and over, again. No more tears, or meltdowns. I won't have to get back into my local Mental Health system, because I'm doing a lot better, than I was, even two days, ago!

Dunno... I don't feel right at the moment.

10.

I'm always in the 5 range as, little happens in my life to indicate a noticeable change in my overall emotional content, then again I've found somethings here on WP to be of a questionable nature..
