I may not sound odd or off to you guys because you get the benefit of editing. I can’t edit the s- that comes out of my mouth tho...

Whether I smoke or not, there are no naps now. The sedation from the Abilify seems to wear off late in the morning or in the early afternoon, and my manic/hypomanic sx get worse and I can’t relax long enough to even lay down.

Yesterday I wasn’t too bad in the morning. At least I wasn’t experiencing significant psycho-motor agitation. I REALLY wanted to start cleaning, but I knew it would rev me up, so I tried to occupy myself with sedentary things. Overstimulation is a bad thing when I’m like this.
Around 2pm, I was wide awake, on the go again, and in the mood to search for and buy s ton of s- (when I could sit down of course).

This is the first morning since taking the Abilify (5mg last night) that I
haven’t woken up completely out of it. I’m definitely hypo tho. I’m getting my Tysabri treatment right now, and I’m in a f- fantastic mood and have been talking everybody’s ear off about totally random s- lol...
I’m curious to see what will happen/how I will be later in the day.

I have the feeling that the Abilify is only sedating me, but maybe I just need to take the higher dose more consistently. IDK. I will give the 7.5mg a chance to work and see if it’s really making a difference.

Mag, citrate again tonight... so f- excited.
