Anyway Chris, good article thanks. I'll get off my soapbox now!

That's pretty interesting that you brought up other examples of compulsive behavior (such as hypergraphia and euphoric insomnia). I guess you could also say they're very similar to behaviors seen in the manic phase of the bipolar disorders (I have major depression with rare and brief hypomanias, so I can empathize with what you have written).

I think my Mirapex may have, in fact, caused me to develop hypergraphia!

Which isn't a bad thing as for now, as I'm a writer...

(Though guess I gotta watch the spending and such... been on Mirapex for 6 months and so far no issues in that department.)
