When I'm hypomanic, I'm not the irritable type. I'm the happy, super motivated and productive type. But I have trouble knowing when I'm hypomanic. I have trouble knowing because I don't know what my "normal", stable mood looks like....I'm always either hypomanic, manic, psychotic, or depressed.

So I'm wondering, how do you know when you're "normal" and when you're hypomanic? Is it impossible to tell?

I asked my therapist this question but I haven't heard back yet and I am very impatient right now. She thinks I'm hypomanic but what if this is just my normal?
