trigger-drought, trigger-drought

severely elevated | very elevated | moderately elevated | slightly elevated | BASELINE | slightly depressed | moderately depressed | deeply depressed | severe depressed || anx :1 | agit:0

I'm really on the upswing - been really creative these days, been feeling so on edge to do something and go out and do stuff, been tempted every night not to sleep. I'm sooooooo thankful for those little blue diphenhydramine pills that effectively put me to sleep within an hour after taking.

So. Slight upswing.

While unmedicated. Dangerous ground, I know, but I want to see how long I can go without the meds.

In my unmedicated elevations in the past, I could get more annoying than a toddler with ADHD. I know I could get real excitable and excited and tactless and hurtful and violent and aggressive and intrusive. But right now I feel hunky-dory because there's been a trigger drought, hallelujah. And I say hallelujah with utmost heartfelt sincerity, I am not just using it as an expression.

Trigger-drought, trigger-drought.
I'm so happy for this trigger-drought.

I'm so glad I left the trigger-place,
I'm on my way to better days.

I've been using my extra creativity and energy on dressing up my blogs. And dressing them up again. And dressing them up again. Once I'm done with one project, I find a reason to start over. OCB right there.

Right now I have this incredible itch to start over with my Happy Thawts Blog which I have just finished making over, because I decided I don't like the menu bar and I can't find the older posts button.
I am right now restraining myself from doing it over.
And succeeding.
So far.
I made a deal with myself not to touch that Edit HTML button - at least until next Saturday.
I hope I'll be successful. Good grief.

Funny thing: Speaking of OCB, I notice that I've been entering this post in this manner:

Type phrase.
Backspace to erase.
Reconsider
Re-phrase.
Erase again.
Re-type.

Ain't I a piece of work?
