When I was unmedicated and frequently manic and hypo-manic, I never had anxiety. The first anxiety attack came last year. I was on a med cocktail that started to take care of the mania. I am now on an effective med cocktail that prevents both depression and mania, but I have unexplained anxiety attacks (not panic, just anxiety). It seems to be some weird vulnerability that I did not have when mania "protected me". I was very self-assured - nothing to be anxious about.

Has anyone else gone through a similar experience?
