what is the difference between BP 1 and BP 2 again ?? i seem to have forgotten which one is hypomanic. one would conclude from the descriptions that it is 2. i believe that a large part of the reason for the perceived discrepancy, is that we think "feeling good" is right and just and normal, so "positive" imbalances are not considered a 'disorder'. but oh well, maybe i have just been 'depressed' so long it seems 'normal' to me,,, LOLOL
