[QUOTE="Steely, post: 219881, member: 3301"] KLMNO.................Gosh, I read your post and you remind me exactly of me. Exactly. I was just perserverating over how Matthew has had a headache for 2 days and it must be one of the new medications he was given. However, I just wanted to add I have seen both in Matt. They present themselves actually completely different if you were there and watching the person, and know them well. Mania is the racing thoughts, fast speech, impulsive actions like you described what happened when your difficult child was on Prozac (which is when he first got in trouble, right?) Wild thoughts, thinking that is not based in reality, anger, etc. Akasthsia is more like MWM described it. Matt was pacing, could not stand the clothes on his body, could not sit down, could not stay still, high anxiety, and was visibly miserable. He could barely tolerate it the physical component - where with mania he is not as aware that his thinking is wrong or skued - and he is physically not uncomfortable. [/QUOTE]
