My brain is always on the move. It’s always saying,”hey try this activity or wouldn’t that be a cool endeavor to undertake.” I never do anything though besides what I currently do which ain’t much because of my problems with making decisions.

On my good days I cram as many activities I can in to the day.

I never feel like doing anything. I just want to stay home all the time.

I’m careful with money, at least in recent years.
I don’t feel better by spending.
I feel better by learning, creating, achieving small goals.
I might be stating the obvious but most of my phrases begin with “I”

I think that describes everybody on this website.

yea i think its a textbook symptom of bipolar. Starting projects and, they say, not finishing them. IDK if thats the case with you or not just saying in general.

I have at least 20 hobbies on a rotating basis.
I think life is meant to be explored.

I also feel this hehe - i used to switch between 8 areas of hobbies before i became unwell (computing, politics, writing, music, drawing, cooking, language learning & game / film analysis)
Right now these days i feel like i have 1000 projects wanting to be called into life. but so stuck on carrying them out compared to before. i think i didnt used to spend this much money at once too… oh well.

Off meds I had lots of grandiose projects, becoming a psychiatrist, curing cancer, becoming a president and a priest. It felt good honestly like mania but I was crazy

nope…I don’t have the money to start new projects so I keep busy with what I can do.
I was working full-time before my first psychosis episodes recently
