When I have been feeling good, I bought a 1100.00 made to measure suit. I went out shopping for a Jaguar. When I feel good money does not mean a thing. However when my mood is down I will not spend a dime without thinking hard about it.
For me these types of episodes occur when I am not medicated enough. Of course being on the medications to prevent these types of episodes is of no pleasure.

You have to weigh the pros and cons, and for me that means being well medicated.
