Alright so I’m done being sick, been since since Friday night. Though I’m kind of still sick, but I had a job interview today, don’t know if I’ve got the job yet have to get another interview. But I know I should have a job before xmas. And since the only jobs i can get seem to be temp which is good, considering my bipolar. But I think I’m going to pay for my course for medical transcription so I can get a better job.
So I thought todays blog on bipolar I thought I would list symptons about it that way you can watch the symptons in you or someone and that way you can get help. So the common symptons are for mania
- Feeling unusually “high” and optimistic OR extremely irritable
- Unrealistic, grandiose beliefs about one’s abilities or powers
- Sleeping very little but feeling extremely energetic.
- Talking so rapidly that others can’t keep up
- Racing thoughts; jumping quickly from one idea to the next
- Highly distractible, unable to concentrate
- Impaired judgment and impulsiveness
- Acting recklessly without thinking about the consequences
- Delusions and hallucinations (in severe cases)
now the most common symptoms for depression are
- Feeling hopeless, sad, or empty.
- Loss of interest in things you used to enjoy
- Fatigue or loss of energy
- Physical and mental sluggishness
- Appetite or weight changes
- Sleeping too much or too little
- Concentration and memory problems
- Feelings of self-loathing, shame, or guilt
- Thoughts of death or suicide
And there are some people who have mixed episodes which where they experience sign of both list at one time. Its very confusing with you have a mix episode. Unfortunately I have these type of episodes often.
