Nothing moving fast enough

So I posted last week about my mania, my pdoc prescribed risperdal which has helped some. Short history, I've suffered from depression and mania for most of my adult life. I have a totally handicapped DS7. 2 weeks ago my H broke his arm. I threw H out. I was spinning out of control trying to figure out some way to make my life better so I can see some reason to get out of bed in the morning and keep living.
I think what I'm experiencing now is common for people with mania. It feels like life isn't moving fast enough. Everything seems to be in slow-motion. I'm doing several things at the same time and don't understand why everyone around can't function at the same level (sometimes the mania feels like a gift!!!!). I'm very shakey, and I think that's a side-effect of the risperdal. I can't sit still. My mind is a bit quieter, but my body feels like a 12-cup of coffee nightmare.
Anyone have any insight or advice with this???? Thanks for listening. Love, Mo.

Mo,
I must have missed your original post (the last 2 weeks for me have been a mess), but I can sure relate to that ants in your pants manic feeling.
