I agree with Velouria. There is a misconception that 2 is less severe than one. By some measures, 2 is actually worse than 1 because the sufferer tends to spend more time depressed
In your original post, I didn't see any symptoms of mania. Staying up late, getting into one thing and going at it hardcore, those sound more like hypomania. Mania gets people hospitalized. Staying up late and getting into something hardcore probably wouldn't result in a hospitalization unless you stayed up too long, but mania usually has other symptoms. It won't be the same from person to person, but it generally gets the individual hospitalized. That said, some wrongfully assume that only BP1 experiences intermittent psychosis, but PTSD, psychotic depression, neurological conditions, medications/drugs in rare instances can account for it, as well. If the psychosis is constant, you're looking at Schizoaffective or Schizophrenia then. Severe, severe anxiety can make a suffer think they're experiencing psychosis when they're not. It could be a number of things, things we can't sort out for you on this forum. You make it sound like your psychosis and hallunications and psyhosis have occured in the absence of manic symptoms - this doesn't sound consistent with BP1 as much as another disorder.Please don't focus so much on the label. A label doesn't validate what you've gone through.
Furthermore, you need to stop attacking users. I noticed some users jumped to conclusions about what you posted here, and maybe that wasn't fair, but I think old "Boy Who Cried Wolf" story applies. People generally don't take kindly to attention seeking behavior. We also don't like being lashed at for giving you exactly what you asked for - opinions. Opinions do NOT mean we are all going to agree you have BP1. You're going to find a lot more sympathy and empathy on this forum than others - please don't exhaust it.
I'd hate to see that. I can't even begin to imagine the amount of suffering you've gone through. It sounds like you've had a hard road, regardless of what your diagnosis ends up being. You may not have control of your DX, but you CAN control how you treat others. We may slip up and do something you're not proud of, but then you have the choice of apologizing and making amends.
