Mostly, I tend to go off in the mountains, but sometimes, I have done some pretty embarrassing things. My
psychotic break was about 18 months ago now. It took a good year to fully recover. I so relate to you saying that you "thought" you were doing better, but were likely still manic or affected by your break or bipolar. I too kept going back to start up my life again, as it was, but couldn't seem to function well for very long.
