Hey Dreamer,

I've never been manic, or so they tell me. When I feel good, it's called normal. Whatever . . .
That means most of my time is spent being depressed.
Predictability is what I am after. Just being sure of what will follow the next day. Which 'me' will show up in the morning. The few extended periods of predictability i have had have been wonderful. Is that normal??

I don't think I've been normal. Lately just feel good -alive euphoric thought it was hypomania but I agreed that maybe my behaviour is manic. I'm on sedz now still can't sleep and I don't want to.
Mostly I've been depressed since birth with little moments of elevated mood that was never normal . Normal would be dull?
Well I've been put on a anti-convulsant for rapid cycling time will tell.
My head hurts. Hoping your flu is easing.

Thanks Dreamer, the flu is better so it's back to work tomorrow.
I don't think that normal is dull. My depressed times are always accompanied by a lack of enthusiasm for anything - even things that were formerly enjoyable. Some people refer to lethargy, or procrastination, or inability to make a decision or just going through the motions. That, to me, is all a part of the loss of the joy of living. If I am feeling really anxious, on top of depressed (which is common for me) I will take numb over alive. But in the long run, need to enjoy the things I do. To me that's normal.
Hope things are a bit sedated in London, but not without pleasure.
