It's hard to tell, because I've been so depressed all semester...but I feel really excited and happy and the thing that sort of tipped me off that this might not be a good thing is that I sort of chopped off all my hair at one in the morning last night...I've had elbow-length hair since middle school. I like it, but I'm a little worried that I'm going to crash and not like it so much. Usually my manic phases aren't quite as noticeable and extensive as my depressive ones. I haven't felt this way in a while.
Has anyone ever done anything a little nuts when they were manic? Just out of curiosity. I'm kind of new to the idea that I have bipolar, so in the past I don't think I've recognized mania, except to note that I get into really excited and happy phases. Worst thing I ever did was move out, spend a ton of money, go completely broke within a month, and move right back in..sort of a prodigal son story. Next would probably be chopping off all my hair. Anyone have any stories?
