When I am manic or hypomanic boredom and thrill seeking is a major problem for me. Substance abuse was an issue as well. I would engage in reckless and dangerous activities to get a rush, and my wife and I would try to scratch the itch by going to theme parks for a more appropriate outlet. I've tried to find other ways of coping but boredom is still an issue. Exercise helps.
