Last time I was hypo I tried to start a Beastie Boys cover band to perform Paul's Boutique Iive (I've never been on stage in my life), I spent $1200 on a kiln and supplies for fusing glass (overdrawing my acct by about $500) and I sent two 1000+ word emails to the girl who broke my heart.

I was just thinking about this thread today, I'm glad it's revived yay!
Anyway I resonate with your experience. I started a business and fashion blog while hypo and while that in itself is not unusual considering I'm a creative person that fact that I spent so much money on the clothes I was to sell and also spent a grand on a professional camera because I was convinced I was going to be big in the blogging world was odd behaviour for me. I, of course crashed and realised that I actually hated selling clothes and fashion blogging was not for me at all. I get very obsessed and energised about ideas but then I start getting more anxious, more irritable and finally depressed
I am not in my right mind when hypomanic and I end up becoming obsessed with things that are actually not for me. Tbh, it doesn't bother me too much as it does show me what I don't want in life so I don't regret anything even though I lost a lot of money.
