I've been having a mixed episode recently and its making me very irritable and depressed. Its also making me want to use substances and spend all my money. Does anyone have advice for handling a mixed episode?

Hi, as in just mania or just depression I suggest you see your psychiatrist before doing things you'll regret later like spending all your money or using illegal substances. Every time I feel that I am slightly out of balance, I immediately take the car and drive to him in order not to do such things. In the past, I've already had cases where I've done things that I regretted, so I'm not taking the risk anymore.
