A Change of Tone
Voice and tone; pre-cursors to a shift in moods.
Sometimes without any knowledge of it. Not until all the words have been spat out so quickly. It is then that if the listener does not take offense first, I notice myself that I suddenly I have began speaking like the most furious person. Snapping and quick tempered.
If I am not careful a bad shift in my mood can happen next. A shift of fury and rage. It is up to me at this point to catch myself and do what I can to avoid this.
Listening to ourselves is an important tool in the management of moods.

Thanks for drawing my attention to that.
I agree. Since I've been diagnosed with bipolar I am more in tune with my moods, I can manage them better and even though I have my "Moments" (I am Human)...it is not that bad in the end.
You're 100% right. In my case, while I try to be self aware, I have a spouse who doesn't hesitate to tell when I'm being an A-hole. Hence, my early warning system.
with me thats impossible. whenever i realize i'm inside bipolar rage i've already said or done something pretty damaging.
here here to that.
Training yourself to listen and trust your own instincts is the most powerful way to achieve self-awareness.
Great post!
Are you OK? I know with the end of the school year it can be busy and all..But I am thinking about you!
teach me more abot this management method, I have zero skills in it.
Sara-
listen to yourself...you have the power to do this too. Listen to yourself when you are happy, manic, sad, angry....listen to the changes...eventually you may be able to learn the tone of pre-rage. Perhaps it is one of frustration or something similar. Good Luck ;)
I have two adopted children where both biological parents have bipolar disorder. I am wanting to be aware what to watch out for.
I have also started a blog about information that I have been researching about it. My blog is at http://understand-bipolar.blogspot.com
Bipolar disorder is an exaggeration of emotions. It is possible to learn to control one's emotions. I repressed my anger for years and then it came out in a big way a few years ago. After a few months I learned how to control my emotions. I am not perfect at it but know what to do when I am getting too stressed out. Take a break and do something for me!
Panic attacks are on the rise. Not only has the common man suffered unimaginable emotional stress owing to these panic attacks, the rise in panic attack cases have also led people to change their lifestyles for the worse. This is no less than surrendering yourself to the worst case scenario. Stress needs to be tackled with care so that you can once again lead a normal life. Here are a few pros and cons attached to your anxiety related stress. http://www.buy-xanax-online-now.com
