This. (Except that I did enjoy the good parts of my hypomania). Although undianosed for about 30 years, looking back it seems that the lows have become more frequent, lower and more intense (though meds have been helping signicantly with this). My old P-doc, when I was hypomanic and resistant to starting meds, told me that, the untreated progression does tend to get worse and with more mixed episodes. Reflecting back, this has been true for me. More mixed? No thanks! They suck! Big time.
Happy&sadglad&mad, I totally have that all-it-takes-is-the-least-little thing too. Are you on any meds, happy&sadglad&mad? I've found them to be helpful with that.
