Action Plan in Case of Mania (Up Phase)

From experience — Clément Baissat

When my mum, peer worker, psychiatrist, or girlfriend says I’m entering an up phase, I:

• Prioritise sleep (in bed by 10:30 pm).
• Take prescribed sleep meds as directed and book my psychiatrist.
• Increase peer support check-ins.
• Inform my close circle.
• Stop alcohol entirely.
• Cancel non-essential meetings.
• Get a second opinion before any new project or big decision.
