But what if in those 5 minutes of hypomania you did something that really affected your life? Could it be considered hypomania, or would it be considered something else? Couldn't it technically be considered ultra rapid cycling?

I really don't know, that's not rhetorical or anything.

Cymbalta, 60mg -- for the depression.
Latuda, 40mg -- for the paranoia (delusional type).
Adderall, 40mg XR & 5 mg reg -- for the ADD.
Xanax, .5 mg as needed -- for the anxiety.
Topamax, 50mg -- still figuring this one out.

MDD, but possibly have some form of Bipolar Disorder. Then again, I could be paranoid . . .

Well, at least I still have my sense of humor.
