> Ace, do you feel any hypomania? I'm not suggesting that you are hypomanic; I'm just checking 'cause you are a friend. See if any of the following symptoms apply to the way you currently feel:No, I can understand your sentiments, but Nardil just re-instates my natural healthy exuberant zest for life - pre-existing any psychiatric treatment, obviously a long time ago when I was a young boy. I have always been a very energetic person. I appreciate your concern.

> 2.decreased need for sleep (e.g., feels rested after only 3 hours of sleep)No. Increased somnia
> 3.more talkative than usual or pressure to keep talkingMore talkative, but not to the extent of hypomania.
> 4.flight of ideas, or subjective experience that thoughts are racingNo. However, this has also been a problem for me at times. Also 'loosening of associations'- not indicative of a FTD, however.
> 5.distractibility (i.e., attention too easily drawn to unimportant or irrelevant external stimuli)No. Once again, this has always been a problem for me. But no exacerbation.
> 6.increase in goal-directed activity (either socially, at work or school, or sexually) or psychomotor agitationNot at all.
> 7.excessive involvement in pleasurable activities that have a high potential for painful consequences (e.g., engaging in unrestrained buying sprees, sexual indiscretions, or foolish business investments)Yes- spending, but to no pathological level.
