For me, it's a severe elevation in mood accompanied by risky driving, major overspending and psychosis. I am also paranoid and easily enraged. The worst part is the persecution complex: "You're just trying to spoil my FUN!!" is what comes out whenever someone tries to tell me I'm manic and need to cool my jets.

I also hear music when there is none, or people talking over the radio or TV.
