Hi
I've been diagnosed with a mild version of bipolar called Cyclothymia but I've always doubted the diagnosis and so does everyone around me!
I get this thing I've got at the moment, though, where I feel restless and on edge and like my thoughts are going really fast but I don't feel worried. I sort of just feel like I want to go out and run a few miles! I've been annoying my boyfriend all day by jumping around and being hyperactive.
I feel kind of like I want to slow down because I feel like I need to rest but my mind's whirring.
I was wondering if anybody else gets this kind of mixed feeling where they sort of feel excited but they're not exactly enjoying it because their thoughts are going too fast and they're starting to feel a bit confused.
I've been really anxious over the last couple of days and I've gradually had this feeling like I'm starting to lose control. I do feel a little bit crazy at the moment. I've never understood whether maybe this was just part of anxiety rather than bipolar. I want it to be because I know there's things I can do about anxiety to try and make it stop but I don't know if there's anything I can do about this if it's bipolar.
So has anyone else ever felt this way? Could this just be anxiety?
