When I’m manic I get too happy No tangible reason for this feeling to be had. Constantly traveling the high wire of emotional states Fearing that I may go too far and go mad. My thoughts tend to run faster and faster, Impaired judgment leads to yet another disaster. Unrealistic beliefs in my abilities and powers Meltdown and destruction just like the twin towers. Increased energy and rapid talking My brain just keeps going, site seeing and walking. No destination in mind, the activity goes on and on Sometimes I can’t get to sleep until well after dawn. Extreme irritability and a decreased need for sleep, At least I’m not depressed so I don’t have to weep. When I’m manic you’ll know it by the above mentioned traits It’s just my cross to bear, not a terminal fate.... |
