I feel I am right on the verge of a manic episode pretty much all the time. If I take my meds I don’t cross that line but I’m always aware of how close I am. After not having meds for a bit by accident I have discovered that I now have a mania on/off switch. This is not a piece of information I should have. If I skip a dose I just don’t sleep until I take the meds. I am taking them as I should now but I did experiment and verified. I was called out right away and only skipped two nights. But I think I may getting a bit delusional about the utility of this.

hope you can keep it under control. I hate when im in the edge of a break down. Meds are really a life saver, theyre the only thing keeping me sane.

Don’t be seduced by mania! It’s always destructive if not to you to someone else. Stay responsible brother!

I’m being responsible. Putting it out there helps me stay accountable.

That’s good. That’s a great use of this website
Sounds like an old daytime soap opera. “Susan Lucchi starring in The Edge of Mania.”
Mania and cyclothymia hurts pretty bad when it is over. To be able to realise that mania is in the corner can make you more in control of it and have better judgement and decision making. Hope you pass through this phase.
When I had mania I was not having this. Wish I had some warning signs. Now I don’t have mania but more of regret for going through with it.
