[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 159848, member: 3444"] Okay, I can appreciate the hypomania comments, I really can. But I'm also looking at a difficult child who has had very, very few play dates in his life and I told him he had to get his room picked up before his friend could come over tomorrow, so I'm weighing that factor in all this, too. It just seems like he was able to focus enough and was motivated enough to dive in and really do a good job. He was happy to stop when we had to leave for difficult child 1's concert tonight. Wasn't stuck or perseverating. I think if he continues to want to clean when he gets home from dinner with-husband and can't sleep tonight, then I might look at a little differently... I mean, come on! Can't I relish a little "normal" moment here? Or at least [I]pretend[/I]? :bigsmile: (Now that I think back, when husband was hypomanic, he was VERY productive... got our brick-on-sand patio and walkways from front to back that way! Although, laying bricks at 11pm with the floodlights out back in the middle of January, even for California, is at bit extreme.) Okay, okay. I promise I'm NOT in denial and I'll keep my eagle eye out tonight to see how things go. [/QUOTE]
