Not sure if this belongs here or in Addictions forum. I am bipolar 1 and quit drinking. Being that alcohol is a depressant, I am wondering if my mood might elevate into mania since I'm off the alcohol.

I have been fully blown manic before when not drinking. That said, whenever I look up drinking and mania or hypomania, all I come across is that alcohol can make a person manic. Any experiences or comments?
