I have been feeling really good for a few weeks now. The past few days I've rearranged my furniture, cleared and cleaned another room, have tons of energy, talk-a lot, have been making homemade meals, am not anxious in public, have felt creative, joking, playing with my dogs, and on and on. I feel like I can't sit still (although I was able to watch a football game today-Go Irish!). I have all these ideas of things to do and actually look forward to the next day. This is in contrast to days that are spent in bed and bad SI thoughts, have no energy and don't really want to live. Could this just be "normal", or does it sound more hypomanic. I have been diagnosed as bipolar 2 because I have had brief times like this where I actually felt good. The thing is, while I am trying to enjoy this, I am really afraid of the "crash" coming. Could I just be OK, or does this sound like hypomania? What do you think?
