Happiness (?)

[synthetic]

I am very suspicious because I have been happy and content and unbothered by my illness for two weeks. Is this…normal? Or am I starting to get a manic episode…? This doesn’t feel like mania though…it’s not crazy or extreme, it’s just…contentedness…and it makes me very suspicious because I went for 5 years suffering from sadness and psychosis every day of my life. Well, except, of course, the time I got very manic, where I was very gleeful but had to drop out of school because I stayed up for 3 days without sleep and started seeing and hearing people in my closet. This isn’t like that…but should I be worried? Especially because this is something I have not felt since I was very young?

Does this happen to you guys? How do I tell this is real and not a dream? I’m very thankful to be feeling this way, especially after what I’ve been through… but I’m starting to get thoughts that I’m cured now…I don’t want it to come back…

It’s ok to be ok! This condition has ups and downs! So being content is good just enjoy it!!

It’s a blessing to feel more relaxed and happy, but please don’t start thinking you’re just cured and no longer need your meds. They are most likely the biggest factor in how good you feel and it’s important to keep taking them.
Enjoy the good vibes @synthetic!

I have thought about stopping my meds but everyone tells me that’s a bad idea…I just hate all the weigh gain and lethargy…if it means feeling good then I won’t though!
