I don't think normal 'good' mood wouldn't be that extreme and abrupt. I could be wrong though.
People with untreated ADHD can definitely appear to have mild mania. What makes them different is their apparent mania is always there. Mania is usually episodic.
Could your recent OD have caused euphoria? Sometimes when people self-harm they get high off of it.
Apparently there is a type of mania that is characterized by dysphoria (mixed state). I did not know this until recently. Irritability, agitation, suicidal ideation, paranoia, impulsiveness, anxiety, racing thoughts and pressured speech are some symptoms and signs. I went through something like this (minus the suicidal ideation) and it wasn't very pleasant.
I would definitely discuss this with your therapist.
