I do remember one episode that I will never forget.

I once thought a friend of mine and I should start a company that would change how big businesses operates, for them to be more effective and successful, for we knew exactly how to make this happen, how to enlighten the executives on how to run their company in a big way. We would be the gurus that could make this happen.

Keep in mind that I has not a clue as to how companies are run, and I did not understand anything that remotely had to do with this great, wonderful plan of mine. I also was terrible with understanding corporate politics. But I still believed in this idea of mine and did not realize what I was saying was preposterous. My therapist later told me I was throwing out far fetched ideas. I was not acting myself. Then she chuckled a little bit.

Maybe not an example of outright mania, but perhaps hypomania.
