Yeah - Me too. Sometimes it is a blessing. Then there are the times it is insane and surreal - especially when you're going through the day trying to keep up with everyone else in the waking world... and everything you see or hear is hazy. It is always amusing and continuously exhausting.
I hear it is akin to bi-polar, but I never seem to be in a "great" high mood or a "horrible" low mood, so I discount that. But I certainly don't have it so badly that I need to worry over much.
I'm glad that I have stuff to keep me busy when those days hit. I am also thankful that I am not one of those people who cannot sleep - EVER. Those that have the genetic mutation for it wake up one day in their 30's and for months they cannot sleep. Some chemical in them will not permit it. They usually die shortly afterwards. FFI...
