They said I didn't sleep or eat for over 5 days straight, and a whole lot of other weird **** I'd rather not mention. (working 12 hour days with no break, lucky to get 1 day off per week during summer) All I remember thinking about was feeling super good (manic), and not caring about a thing, just pretty much waiting to die at the same time, I really can't put it in words exactly what it's like I just lost myself completely. Apparently I was pretty bad, they had me taking over 2900 mg of different crap along with injections every time I started a fight with the guards at this psychiatric care facility my mom admitted me to for 2 weeks. And now I'm on 1500 mg's nightly. I've been drug free for over a year now but I can't get off the cigarettes! I'm doing a lot better now, still working ~40 hours a week and going to high school, getting into mechanics because I love working on cars, got a 93 Honda Civic project I've been on for some time now and I want to work on mostly imports.
As for the fast, still going strong but I had another diet dr. pepper, the last one this time for sure. | I have heard of people with bi-polar disorder being more sensitive to bloodsugar dropping. Maybe you should include some fruit juice, just to be safe?
