One of my fears concerning my depression/bipolar/whatever is going on with me was that if I got really depressed, I'd stop doing school work and practicing my instruments and when I finally got out of it, I'd be in a heap of trouble and need to try to dig myself out of the hole I'd created. What I didn't consider was that I'd become hypomanic and feel so confident in myself that I stopped studying and doing extra credit. Well, that's what happened. I had three tests on one day and I felt so great about myself I just didn't study for any of them. Thankfully, the teachers curved the first tests a lot, but I really never considered that this could be a problem.
