I think I’m heading towards my first aware manic episode - all my kooky traits are right at the front, I’m sleeping less and am very overstimulated (easily so). Body is all jumpy feeling and I need to move. Have cyclical thoughts heading towards obsession, and have found 3 or 4 new projects I want to start. My kinks are becoming very dominant (not ashamed of this, they are always there, but right now they are demanding attention), and I’m having to consciously slow down my speech when talking with others (tricky). Am becoming a bit over confident for my own good.

Just unsure if I try to calm it down, or let my (manic) freak flag fly within safe parameters? Have left a message for my Dr, waiting on reply. 

Also, any playlist suggestions for mania? I’ve always been very easily manipulated by music, so something calming or something to help push my mania in a positive-energy direction would be awesome.
