Every time you have an episode, it is worse than the time before. They call this "kindling". A manic episode might not be fun. It might be mood dysregulation where you start sobbing fir no reason. Or, you might start sending nonsense to your friends or saying really nonsensical things which you think are just fine. Or, you might go psychotic and hear voices or see other hallucinations- some of which might be really scary.
Please- take your meds. Even on meds, I've had breakthrough psychosis. You have to accept your diagnosis and move on from there.

Meh, not to say give the OP any ideas (please don't do anything alone)... many people have been misdiagnosed... and since each time when doubts their diagnosis it's "your diagnosis talking"... one could spend whole life treating the wrong disease...
so if the OP has any doubts, they should talk to their doctor and get second option if needed. WHY do you feel the Dx has been incorrect? What lead to the diagnosis? Try to talk to profesionals... here on board we cannot help you. However, if you have doubt... tell them. Blind trust in theme is just as bad as mistrust.
