When i'm in a bad mixed state i an energetic and impulsive, and i get myself into a lot of problems with high risk activities that would usually be associated with feeling good. Stuff like risky sex, drug use, spending lots, going to dangerous places. At the same time as being energetic and pleasure seeking, i get deeply depressed and suicidal. So it's a pretty dangerous combo because i have energy and drive to do anything, but no desire to keep myself safe or alive. I get really agitated and i don't sleep. It is more dangerous for me than depression, because with straight depression i just hide out and isolate. In mixed states i'm out getting myself into trouble. It's not always that extreme, but even a mild version is bad.
