I honestly think alot of people (myself included) can become to obsessive with our moods. Yes we do need to do a "self check" at times.
Sorry you're in a bad space right now, landskaperdan.

I can really relate to what you wrote, morethingswrong! Hypo is great...but mania gets me into a lot of trouble. It would be nice if hypo was a constant state...but being bipolar is a part of the deal.

I also agree that we can become obsessive about our moods. Even "normies" have their ups & downs. We shouldn't look to our BP to explain everything we feel. I hope that makes sense to you landskaperdan. It's a healthy perspective if you can maintain it.
