I don’t know what’s happening, but I’m so incredibly irritable today.
Everything and everyone peeves me off, and I just wanna scream to leave me tf alone, be quiet and get out of my way.
I’m also kinda restless.
I feel my body is on high alert.
I guess agitation is the word I’m looking for?
What could be causing this?
My guess is either pms, or sensory overload because there’s a lot of noise here and a lot of new sensory input to get used to.
How can I reduce it?
Maybe it’s from stress due to your move to a new country?
I listen to relaxing music and go for a walk. Nature has a healing effect on me.
First, what was your name before if you had one? Second are you sza? I fine when I’m feeling the way you are describing, and I call it agitated, I’m having a mixed episode. I’m sza bipolar type. A mixed episode is both depressed and manic at the same time, not too extreme of either for me, just enough to get me agitated and acting out a bit. I do things like rant while pacing, lash out verbally, toss things around a bit, it sort of is like pms on steroids.
I was Miika/Nova/Berru.
Lol hiiii 
I suspect I’ve had mixed episodes before, so I wouldn’t be surprised if I’m having another one.
They usually last 1-3 days where it’s noticeable. This is the second day.
I sleep less during those days, but it’s like my body just gets less tired and if I sit still I’ll feel worse?
In my case the irritability and agitation made me fight with my brothers and parents verbally and sometimes with my brothers physically. Increasing my risperidone from 4 to 6mg fixed it.
I don’t want to increase the risperdon, but I might have to temporarily.
I still have control over my actions, but my inner emotions are harder to manage, and my fuse is shorter
Yea thats what I was going to say, in my case I lost control completely and it got me into trouble.
HIYA! I went to your profile and started reading your comments and thought this is the nicest person ever, I want to be friends with this person, and it wasn’t long before I was able to deduce it was you. Yes, I would suspect a mixed state if I was forced to bet but I’m not a qualified clinician. I usually get into to see someone at mental health but they don’t really do much about it. In the past It has meant meds changes for me because my antidepressant wasn’t right. Luckily I am on one now that is really working the way it’s meant to. I haven’t had even hypo mania. Cymbalta, love the stuff. I hope it never stops working.
Have you got an appointment?
