Does this sound hypomanic:
becoming obsessed with a new hobby and reading or putting every free minute you have into it and making plans to spend as much money as you can on it cuz you need this and this
Or deciding to clean the house like top to bottom & becoming super irritable during the process
being unable to sleep because youre so excited for payday and you are thinking of a thousand different ways to try to spend your money. You write up a grocery list and look through all the flyers to get the best deals and fill your house up
Or maybe you think up plans to renovate your house & get new furniture & paint & new decor
Or maybe you plan out a tropical or disney vacation that you want to take and research all the different things you can do and see and write out your itinerary and figure out how you are going to pay for it and start talking to your significant other about how amazing this trip is going to be and they look at you like you have two heads because you still owe rent to your landlord.
Then snapping all the time at everyone and being angry all the time and suddenly you spent all of your money on your new fish tank or your new video game system and your mood suddenly begins going down.
You can hardly get off the couch and you are eating everything in site and you just feel so depressed and numb and like a melonchaly feeling comes over you and you feel stressed because you are trying to figure out how you are now going to pay your utility bill. You dont shower for days and even brushing your teeth is exhausting. You sleep through the weekends and can barely make it through work. You just want to escape and you are overwhelmed with all of life's responsibilities and you go into a deep depression for months.
You feel like your moods are so out of control. You go through substance abuse and then eating problems because its a way to escape. You have poor self esteem. You sometimes want to die.
Does this sound like a bipolar 2 type of problem or more like a hormonal or depression problem? Is it possible for hypomania to cycle multiple times a day? Is it possible to cycle from hypo to depressed within an hour or so? Or doed it have to last days at a time?
