My last hypomania was just over 6 months, I was up the entire time, but had a short temper and NO filter. I wasnt fussed by it though, I felt great and did what I want when I wanted. Quit my job, dropped my meds, dropped my pdocs, pretty much went partying and having a blast for 6 months... then it turned mixed and within 4 days I was back in my pdocs office begging to be medicated. That was the first time it turned mixed and since then I have had more mixed features. Since then I havent dropped my meds again, that was about 5/6 yrs ago? Time is weird.
