Hi Everybody - My name is Jena and I have been going through a mixed episode for about three weeks now. About two weeks ago I got very paranoid...thinking that people were staring at me and talking about me behind my back. I also started looking for spiders (I am scared to death of them) and thought they were in my bedroom. Anyway, I got my meds adjusted about a week and a half ago and now I am just plain manic. Yesterday, I cleaned all day. I rearranged my bedroom furniture (I have something wrong with my hip, so that's probably not the best idea in the world - I go get an x-ray today) and I cleaned my pantry and my laundry room. It took my 5 hours. Today I went to bed at 1:00 AM and got up by 5:00 AM. By 6:15 AM I was doing laundry and made blueberry muffins for my Mom. I am really happy right now. I feel GREAT!!! But, I'm scared of the eventual downward spiral after the mania. I just had a doctor appointment on Monday and she didn't adjust anymore of my medication. She said it could take up to 14 days for my medication to reach the full effect. Anybody have any suggestions on how to deal with all this extra energy? I am running out of things to do around the house and went shopping this morning. I only spent $40.00 but, I am on disability and have a limited income. I guess I'll take all of it back because I can't afford it. Help!!!

Exercise? Painting?
