hi everybody id just like to introduce myself.
im in the process of being diagnosed with....something, hopefully. if i describe my symptoms maybe some of you may/may not recognise them.
i've always gone through stages as long as i can remember really, for weeks i'll be absolutely bouncing off the walls, it starts off slowly over a couple of days where i feel brilliant, full of energy, with a sort of fluffy, contented feeling, like i'm at one with nature. but then it goes further where i cant do anything because my mind is going so fast even getting dressed becomes a nightmare, running about trying to do eight different things at once. i get up at 3am for work but i dont sleep and get up before my alarm goes off! i eat painkillers like there going out of fashion to try to bring me down a bit.
im very snappy and irritable as well, eg. if i put a t shirt on and my head doesnt go through the head part 1st time i'll rip it to shreds and throw it away, i also dont eat and my last stage like this ended a week or two ago i'd lost nearly a stone.
then theres the other side where i am now, not washing/shaving, tiredness beyond belief, feeling like crying and feeling very guilty that i have caused my other half to leave with my mood swings. i've not opened the curtains for about 4 days and feel like my mates in the pub are all laughing at me. i also always have a feeling that someone is watching me at all times, i dont hear voices but am very paranoid/ suspicious of people and if i go downstairs in the night fo ra drink i'll put every light on and sing, whistle or shout out to take my mind off thinking someone is watching.
anyway sorry for the long post, if anyone thinks they have a feeling whats going on any advice would be appreciated, thanks.
