When I am low, this is what I feel:

- Shortness of breath
- Trembling, shaking
- Not thinking straight
- Really tired or really energized
- Angry, mood swings

When I am high, it’s really hard to feel. My parents can tell when I am high because they say that I speak faster, I can be a bit flushed, I am more disorganized. When I am really high, like above 250, I am tired, but more like energy-sapping kind of tired, rather than sleepy. I have a bit of a hard time concentrating. I typically don’t notice it unless I already know I am high.
