It's just who I am. It's a part of me. It's nice to know that I'm not just overly emotional - that there really ARE some mixed wires in my brain!

When I'm hypomanic I appreciate it because I feel like I'm my best self - the me I wish I was all the time (most people would never notice that I was hypomanic because my baseline is pretty low... so my "ups" don't really cause me many problems). When I'm depressed it can be different, but at least I can go "stupid brain!" and ignore the desires to make stupid choices.
