I am also a really fun hypomanic! I get so much done & crack jokes & make witty comments on just about everything. It really can be thrilling & I forget about what a burden BP is until my mind starts racing on a negative track or another negative symptom shows up for me to deal with. It's so unfortunate that such useful phases are always soured by the rest of the disorder. Lol :/

Ya I guess I think I can solve other people's problems, or have things figured out, but I never think I can't keep up with my thoughts. They are just really good or really paranoid and mean. I'm fun when I'm happy, but really not fun when I'm not. People just kinda stay out of my way is what I've been told. I'm glad to learn more about this stuff. On meds I thought I was fine, but clearly still have these symptoms. I'm going to the pdoc today. This is all very eye opening. I can't remember a time in my life when I wasn't like this, and I'm almost 34 now. It's all very overwhelming to understand. How do you know when it's not the disease that's making you happy or angry? or depressed?
