If I could mix all of your lovely people's symptoms together, that is how Bi-Polar makes me feel LOL....

The hypomania for me is amazing, but doesnt come that often. To me, its what I think I should feel like as a "normal" person. Very energetic, funny, bubbly, talkative, more self confidence, and not as tired....I wish it would pay a visit more often but shhh...dont tell my PDoc that lol...

The depression sucks a*s.....no energy, irritable, suicidal thoughts, want to sleep all the time.....low low low...

Now I also experience something else and if someone could give me a word for it, I would much appreciate it....When I am off my meds, I get these voices in my head (not like schizo type thing....its actually my own thoughts) and my own thoughts tell me the stupidest things and I get mad over it.....My thought will tell me something like "your signifigant other is running late...he must be cheating" and my rational thought will tell it that "no thats not true" and It will tell me "but it could be".....what in the world is that?? I take Topamax for the thoughts, etc...and its gone now....occcassionally I get that channel flipping static at night when I am trying to sleep, but thats about it....
