On mixed states. I've seen where "they" say that BPIIs don't have them, but I disagree. I've had them and have talked with others who have as well. The only reason I can figure that they might not count them is some criteria of duration. Which... well, is frustrating, because they are still both extremes happening simultaneously and are extremely dangerous. I've seen the term "agitated depression" used... but this is frustrating to me as well, because I've had that, and it's not the same. It's very unpleasant to be sure, but not nearly as extreme.

Mine happened before I was medicated. They are extremely uncomfortable states. I really can't even describe it. There is no doubt that I'm a huge danger to myself at such times. And unbelievable impulsive. I've often thought, "This. This is what will get me in the end".
