Hi Tom,
I just got really close to going manic. I was hypomanic for about a week and I did have that scary feeling that I was going to loose it. I did what I would advise you to do and made an emergency appointment with my psychiatrist. We added on a mood stabilizer, Topamax, and increased my Seroquel. Two days later I am feeling like myself agin. I no longer feel like I'm on the brink of insanity.So yeah, seeing a therapist is good, but my therapist really couldn't help. Try making an appointment with a pdoc. And if you are having trouble sleeping you might try taking a benadryl until you get in to see someone. Good luck. I know how scary it can be.
