To be honest, I’m not sure it’s the Abilify at this point though.
I had a very strange episode a few days ago that culminated in severe irritability, lethargy, shopping, and restlessness. It could have possibly been a mixed episode.
I hope you come out of your mixed episode soon. I have been cycling from mixed (but mostly manic) to mixed (but mostly depressed) back to mixed (but mostly manic). It’s exhausting, TBH. I’m running on 5.75 hours of sleep!
Hopefully your moods will stabilize soon, and you’ll be able to get some quality sleep.
This is all new stuff for me, since my diagnosis is SZA- Depressive type, and not Bipolar type. But I suspect (and so does my mom) that there’s more to the story.
