Hi lost penny,
I am where you are. Just struggling to find a reason to go through the motions each day. I have recently changed meds which always is a big upset for me. I let it go too long this time before switching and hit a real low point. Now it’s a long road back up. Like you, I have these brief periods where I feel quite good and then my mood swings rapidly downward. I want someone to help – to do something – but the only alternative seems to be to grind it out and wait. I am also at work, totally unfocused and accomplishing nothing. Left with too much time to think. A menial, labour intensive job would be good right now so I could shut off my brain. I have been replacing the roof on my house; pulling a million nails etc. and I find that very therapeutic. I may patent it. Something guaranteed to occupy you while generating zero emotion or excitement. I find that the slight highs, are often followed by a low so I try to avoid them during unstable times.
Sound like you are in unstable times as well. Maybe we can ride it out together?Greg A.
