The difference between bipolar II and cyclothymia is that both have hypomania, neither have full mania, bipolar II has major depressive episodes, and cyclothymia had low mood/dysthymic episodes, but never meets criteria for major depression. So the highs are the same, but the lows are lower in BP II than cyclothymia.
