Is this part of mania?

So since I've been on medication. (just under 2 years) I haven't experienced full blown mania. I've had a few days that i was definitely elevated and in a hypo-manic state. But tonight I'm worried mania is finally here. There was some stress through the holidays with family drama, some minor disturbance in sleep pattern recently with the holiday break . Now I'm feeling full of energy at 2 a.m. for the second night this week. I have a list a mile long of things I want to do but its late and I don't want to wake my S.O. so ill try to be quiet. I'm feeling hyper-sexual and feeling guilty about having bad thoughts. I'm having a hard time focusing on one thing and writing this is very difficult.

The only symptom that is questionable to me is the fact that I'm very paranoid. I think that someone is going to break in and take me hostage and do terrible sexual things to me. Its very scary to think that way and is really upsetting me.

i feel so alone right now. Does this sound like anyone else's mania?

Hi

Sorry to hear you are struggling with all of this. I certainly recognise aspects of when I am manic in what you have said. The paranoia sounds really nasty to be dealing with. I know that some ppl can get like that with mania so you are not alone. I really think that you need to talk to your Dr about this sooner rather than later to get some advice about what to do. I really hope you are feeling better soon.

Hugs

ok so the paranoia has seemed to lessen a little. i feel a little less anxious because of that. but i am still dealing with the other manic symptoms. ive talked to my case manager at my mental health clinic and she is working to see what the doctor wants to do next, what can i do in the meantime to cope with my mania? any advise is welcome.
