I try to avoid thinking about what follows, that would ruin my mood. It's like a black cloud that follows you waiting for the rain to come out and spoil a perfectly good day. HOT guys, is there anything better? YUMMY!!! I saw you had a post at psych central about that movie. Is it in the theaters now or on DVD? Are you saying it is about BP, does Nicole play a BP person? I would be very interested in it. I seem to be *drawn* to movies that involve mental illness. I doubt I'll get to the actual theater but I'll try to remember it when it is released on DVD. I will definitely want to catch this one. Thanks for the suggestion. BTW, I didn't respond to you at psych central, not because I didn't want to but I got side-tracked, that happens so easily. I apologize for not doing so.
I'm not sure where my mood is right now. I usually crash and burn after my hypomania is gone but not this time. I'm not sure whether my hypomania is transforming into irritability and hostility because I certainly can feel that rearing it's ugly head right now or whether I'm actually in a calm state. If so, that would be a very new one for me because I don't recognize calm. I haven't experienced it since 2001. I'm treading slowly to see what unfolds but I feel the irritability and hostility fighting to get out. <no pun intended> I have very little if any control over it or even controlling it once it is unleashed. Keep good thoughts for me if you will. I do so hate the hostility stage. It's not pretty.

> Becareful with the guys... the only way I can curb myself from them is knowing how gross I'll feel when the hypo stops. Like we ever stop ourselves because of what we will feel like in the future.. haha. It's so easily said... jsut try and be careful. I try and keep a journal too- because when I come out of the manias, I don't remember much of what happened.

> I hear you about the exercize... it was a shot, though. Do you like movies? Have you ever seen "The Hours"? I hate Nicole Kidman, but that movie is all about us... if you ahve seen it, you know what I mean. It's a good movie to watch, and it will give you something to do too.
