For me it was...

When you make the mistake of letting a GP dabble in psychiatry, they give you an AD, and you go from a complete depressed mess to happy! happy! happy! bouncing off the walls in the space of 2 days and they don't realize that's a problem(!) And you're so damn happy not to be so damn depressed that you don't either! (For awhile...)

And... when your co-workers can't believe you got like 2 hours of sleep, because the lack of sleep doesn't even faze you and you're still kicking their a**es.

Or...
When you're up all night in the studio, then hop in a car to drive 8 hours to an event, rip down mountain passes shouting that Mario Andretti has NOTHING on you! Then you arrive, can't STFU for 3 days and wonder what is wrong with these people and their need for sleep.

Hahaha, yes! You had your clothes on though, right? Lol. (With me and the countertops, it was the only "normal" thing about it!)

"The context of point C"!!!! Who needs it?! Bunch 'a neanderthals!

I've been avoiding the depression ones ('cause they're no fun!), but....

...When you're so depressed you could suck the air out of an open-air stadium.

...When at an interview they ask, "where do you see yourself in 5 years?", and you have to make something up, because you suspect that, "I don't" isn't the kind of answer they're looking for.
Thanks for this!
