I usually get racing thoughts, increased energy, less sleep, and take on a lot of projects. I get really into crafts, drawing, writing, playing guitar, songwriting. All normal interests for me, but I tend to think I'm better at them than I really am [emoji6] I also spend too much money and run myself in debt. Also clean a lot.

Unfortunately, I tend to experience hypomania not like this half the time. The other half of the time I get the racing thoughts (dark in nature), energy, and insomnia in combination with depression.

The racing thoughts are usually the give away for me. Sleep not always because I tend to hate to sleep and fight it.
