Yes, and the problem is I can't quite recall (nor do I quite care at the moment :)) what exactly I said to my therapist on the telephone, nor to my prof, or random strangers on the street. I do remember my therapist saying somthing to the effect of, "Well, I know that I could continue talking all night, but I have to work." And I think I said, "No, you have to talk to me." And I'm not embarrassed in the least! Maybe he'll want to discuss me being needy at our next session? He did say that we will need to continue our discussion at the next session, the problem is I can't remember what we were talking about!!! I suppose I could just play along... But what if I don't like what I hear??? What if I said something really bad? At this point I don't really care, but I don't really like showing my "honestly, truly, [mentally ill]" self to my therapist.... Does anyone else have this problem??? I guess I just like to pretend entirely too much. I need to grow up. Or maybe the world needs to quit being so demanding a relax a little bit? Yeah, I like that much better. The world could use a bit more relaxation... I'm not the one with the problem, everyone else is :)
Oh, and to address the issue!!! Yes, hypomania seems to cause a sort of "loosening of inhibitions." As well as impulsive behaviors. For some reason I become much more interested in sex. As a matter of fact, I can't wait to see Bubba, he's in for a treat :)
