Hi,
About six months ago I was diagnosed with depression. I was as low as I could ever be. I self harmed and took an overdose. Now I'm 'back to normal' although I wouldn't describe this as normal because for the past few weeks I have behaved completely out of character!
At the moment I'm in an extremely high mood, full of energy even though I hardly sleep. I started smoking, even though everyone who knows me knows how much I hate it. I started spending money on things that I didn't even need or want. I'm also gambling a bit. And I think the worst thing is, which is also illegal, driving round with no insurance. I just never think of the concequences when I'm feeling like this. I have so many ideas going through my head... My mind races!
It feels fantastic, but I'm also aware that behaving this way is completely unlike me. i.e the smoking, gambling, driving with no issurance, are all things I'm against. Yet I'm happy to go ahead and do it without thinking. Although this feels good... I'm guessing something is wrong.
What's going on with me?
P.S. I am no longer driving, as my girlfriend found out and I was forced to stop.
