I've had very few mixed episodes, but they're gawdawful, and would choose depression over it. The worst 1 I had, I was as hyperactive as hell,with the determination of a pitbull. At the same time, suicidal and heartbroken for no reason,with tactile hallucination (bugs on my skin) anxiety that caused me to rip out some hair, thoughts going a 1000 mph, just for fun.I was a very angry person, angrier than usual. Lasted about a week, being at both ends of the pole at once, SUCKS! meds dont help those...
