Like others have said, you are type 2 if you have had hypomania but never mania. If you have an episode of mania the diagnosis changes from type 2 to type 1. It is possible to have a mixed state in type 2 (hypomania and depression mix). In DSM-IV mixed state was only in type 1, but that was changed in DSM-V to allow for mixed states in both types.
