If so, what do you do to get back into more normal patterns of behavior? 
I’ve been on a tear since late January, when I started having what I think was a mixed episode. I wasn’t psychotic, but I was all over the damned place. Why did I pack four sets of sexy matching underwear/bra combos to go to a retreat in the woods by myself? Only my hypothalamus knows. 
So, after a couple of rough, pretty low days, I’ve started to level out. I mostly feel like myself now, but I cannot seem to follow normal sleep or eating routines. Everyone says it’s important to get regular sleep, so I’m really trying. But I don’t get tired when I should. I usually love eating, but I’ve  been going whole days on just a few small snacks. I didn’t eat dinner until ten last night, even though that’s when I usually go to bed. Even when I drug myself, I sleep like shit, have bizarre vivid dreams and wake up at odd hours. Im now exercising in the mornings, which does help calm my brain and make me able to focus a little, but I’m still averaging 5-6 hours of sleep. I feel like I got so disregulated over the last few weeks that even though I’m feeling better, I can’t get back to non-manic patterns. Halp!
