    You're not alone. I try and comfort and support my spouse when she's upset rather than getting frustrated. That being said, she doesn't burst into tears unless the situation is pretty serious. I...

    I feel the same way. Socializing with people consumes a lot of energy, I find it fatiguing. It also seems like people are more easily offended these days and expect you to walk on egg shells around...

    If it helps, I have taken clonazepam in that dose and felt very little effect. In my experience it is a mild medication. Try one of the .25 doses before bed, you might be pleasantly surprised.

    For what it's worth, if you can afford it, go 1st Class. I did that on our most recent trip, it's the only way I can sleep on the plane. Also, the airline personnel are nicer to you in 1st.

    I agree with Kirk. I also don't like the manic phase, I usually end up feeling foolish about my behavior later, especially when I pass back into depression.
