Once the prns kick in I appear to be more "normal" and that's what he sees when he gets home from work. He did notice a difference this weekend because he
saw how I was in the morning
before I medicated. And he
saw the difference
after I medicated. He said I wasn't off the wall, and it didn't seem to faze him.
He's noticed a drop off in productivity the last few days (I'm not scrubbing the walls anymore). Part of that is intentional, part of that is because the type of hypomania I'm experiencing now is less-goal-oriented (I left that part out). Yesterday I told him that "I'm not feeling well and am trying not to get myself worked up."
I like the fact that he's picking up on changes in my behavior, and is getting involved enough now to start asking questions.
I saw pdoc and I told him we are just adding back a drug I was taking before. He detests dose increases and drug additions, but he was satisfied with my explanation.
I try to tell him enough so that he understands what is going on without going into any detail. His responses to my explanations lead me to believe that he thinks I have things under control.
Sunday he told me he wasn't going to drink during the week anymore. Monday he came home with a 12pk. After that was gone, he got into some hard stuff. He didn't drink last night, but he did take an OTC sleeping pill.
No recent disagreements
Thank you for asking Bizi,
