I can usually only tell in retrospect whether I was just happy or hypomanic. When I'm in the moment I just flip flop between either view and get all confused. I've been experiencing this all week actually. Just came out of a 10 month long depression and I don't know what state I'm in.

Out of the past 20 days I've slept at all for about 6 days. Which is a red flag. But before I was still feeling depressed. Now I'm getting jolts of intense euphoria at the most random times. Like driving home from work, or walking past a fountain. But I'm not talking fast or too much, or more psychomotor agitation than usual (I had that during depression too), and I'm not like uber happy all the time or anything. Maybe a little more social.
