I think I may be mixed right now. But, I may be a little drunk right now too, lol. I know it's not actually that funny, it's just funny to me, hahaha. But anyway, on a serious note...I have only had one known mixed episode and it lasted for months. I had symptoms of mania: no sleep, pressured speech, irritability, delusional thinking, but at the same time I was constantly crying and severely depressed.
I really do think I may be in a mixed episode now though and it is entirely different than before. I have some symptoms of mania: reckless behavior (mostly reckless spending), lack of sleep (followed by oversleeping) and irritability. I had about 3 weeks of elevated mood and in the last week am back to extremely suicidal. I am honestly not certain this is a mixed episode though. Right now I'm not sure what the hell it is. At the moment, I feel damn good but it is not PR friendly to stay drunk all the time apparently. So, I guess we shall see.
