I often can't tell what my mood is exaclty, which is why mood tracking is so important. I'm more "symptom tracking" than mood. I guess. Because I have a lot of mixed states. And even when I think, "I'm not well," it's often worse than I realize.

But, when I am actually manic, or close to it, I have no idea. Because I feel good. I get a lot done. I feel like I'm doing a great job, and relieved to not be mixed. But at the same time, I have 0 focus so I'm making tons of errors. I have no idea that this is happening. I never realize how bad things were until I get to the other side and look back at the devistation behind me.
