I wonder. Can in a period of mania the mania become more and less intense? Like a day or two after you did something that seemed hilarious at the time is now no longer funny, and maybe inappropriate? Then this can repeat itself in some way? Can this also happen in depression where one day you are able to get off the couch and microwave yourself something to eat, just for the next day not being able to get off the couch for anything, including something like a possible fire in the room?
