Now I love people and conversation...

Sorry for the boring headlines on each of the posts prior, simply telling you how far into the experience I am. I’m going to start labeling each entry more descriptively from now on. Above I’ve indicated that I enjoy keeping myself mentally focused and challenged with projects with other people. Mostly though, I want to communicate. Whether it be through this blog or through my mouth in a face to face or over a phone conversation, I love it all. I can’t get enough of people. It’s not that I want to party with them, like I do when I’m hypo manic, I simply want to be with them and talk to them, expressing my ideas and listening to theirs. This is very stimulating to me and it is a brand new skill in which I’ve nearly mastered in a short amount of time. This is fantastic to me and I couldn’t be happier about it. (Well… I could be euphoric like with hypo mania, but this is not what I am talking about here.)
I continue to emphasize the fact that I truly believe that I am NOT hypo manic. I’ve already expressed in other entries, the differences, so I won’t go into it again. This is an important realization. It was of subtle concern on my part that it was, indicating of course that this phase in which I am in, was temporary only. But as I spoke of before, hypomania for me lasts only 3 or 4 days usually. I’m almost going on 3 weeks here. It’s amazing and good. Not to mention all the other differences involved.
And to address the fact that I am comfortable with people (to state it mildly), I have a social event to attend in which cameras will be present, filming the party. This is happening in only a 1/2 hour (which means I have to get ready now.) But the important point here is that I am excited about it more than timid. Of course I have a tiny hint of nervousness, considering the circumstances (cameras, sophisticated people, etc…) but am truly thrilled at the opportunity and thrilled at the fact that I would never have been able to say I was thrilled with a social function just over 3 weeks ago.
I’ve changed. Of course the question remains, for how long? I will find out only one way - live it and hope for the best!
I’ll continue to keep you posted.
