It’s different from my anxiety pain. Totally different. Sometimes I just get lit up with this electric feeling that makes me feel like I’m about to explode. It’s kind of like a super magnified feeling like I should be doing something specific that’s really, REALLY important but I don’t know what I just have a feeling like I should be doing it. And it gets triggered by things. I get triggered a lot easier when I’m tired. For example I was watching Criminal Minds, which I shouldn’t have been before bed because it triggers me, but they had a bunch of episodes on people with psychosis and delusions and I got the feeling. I want to run and fight and dance and write and do a million things I just don’t know what I’m supposed to do with this feeling.
Does anyone else get this? It’s definitely something I’m going to bring up at my psych meeting. I need to do something but I don’t know what. Whatever it is is driving me nuts and it HURTS. It makes me shake like I can’t keep it in my body. That actually helps alleviate it sometimes I shake really hard.
sounds like mania. maybe the adrenaline shooting through your body. i had this made me feel like i had confidence enough to start a catfood company and thought voices were going to guide me the right way to finish it. felt good about it and confident then it went away and made me sad lol now im too scared and apathetic to start a cat food company by myself.
be careful its not from your meds though i think i got tarditive dyskinesia from meds. youtube tarditive dyskinesia see if its familiar
Yes it sounds familiar. Hyper or manic feelings. I used to get that sometimes, like I wanted to unzip my chest and fly out of my body, like my body was too small to hold me. It was crazy, exciting and also very uncomfortable!
I’m not on any meds so I’m not worried about that. Also the shaking is voluntary it’s not like a tremor or tic or anything. It looks kind of weird when I do it so I try to avoid it in public but if I really need to I’ll shake my hands a little.
I’ll do some research into mania to see if I identify with it so thank you to everyone who posted in the thread!
