I love sleeping, honk-shoo is so goated.

    My ex has bipolar and I could feel when they were going to swing up in a day or so. Theyd literally be hotter, like when we were in bed sleeping. Theyd talk a little faster. Then theyd start having REALLY GOOD IDEAS lol, sometimes genuinely good and creative and sometimes it was the mania/hypomania talking.

    Upswings, seem more about waiting for it to chill out. And it will. It doesnt last forever. Ground yourself, get good sleep. No lights when its time to sleep (including phone). Rest in a dark room for sleep, 8 to 9 hours no exceptions. If you ever go full mania, maybe consider hospital… I dunno it sucks but also if youre really up there they can help managa your meds
