My husband is asking me to ask you for advice
How can I start to recognize when I’m in a manic phase? Since my wedding went to shit I’ve been unmotivated and untrusting of everyone. I feel my wife is out to harm me in some way. I can get up for work 3 hours early and still be late. I notice stuff missing all the time since my dads tools got ripped off but my wife says that I’ve misplaced it. I feel she is a part of it. I really don’t have mood swings because I don’t feel I have a mood anymore. I don’t smile anymore. I’m even having a hard time accepting my diagnosis. I’ve lost all hope and faith in mankind. I need help from the community and my wife is the computer savvy one so if you can please reply that would be great.
@MissTeeLove I'm not an expert (and at 7 Cups we cannot provide medical advice), so I Googled this question and found some information that might be useful. Here's one of the articles I found: 10 Early Warning Signs that You Might be Slipping into Mania
However, It seems to me that doesn't match the description posted here very well. I think I maybe found a better match here: What Are the Early Warning Signs of Psychosis?
Diagnosis and treatment for this kind of thing probably need to be discussed with a psychiatrist. I know there are medications that some people find helpful.
