I was reading this over:
Hypomanic Episode Symptoms | Psych Central

What I've been calling hypomania is much less severe than this. I get hypomanic - in my definition - for a little bit each day. Maybe there's a page about that vs. "episodes"?

My experiences:
-Smiling a little to myself while listening to a song I like. Music tends to make me "feel" hypomanic.
-Thinking about something funny I want to say or someone else said and laughing to myself (if I'm alone).
-Feeling a little bit more energetic but not losing sleep, I especially don't like to fall asleep until 12-1AM vs. 10PM if I am depressed.
-Also, as for grandiosity - I very seldom am unless I'm really sick (in that case, I'm jesus or a genius or whatever) but I can get that way for a few minutes, eg thinking "when I did that, I was really smart..." and then I feel that my daydream had a grandiose tone to it.

If I exhibited 3 or more of the symptoms of that hypomania page for more than an hour, I'd consider myself manic.

My questions:
-Are there words then for things that are demi-hypomania? Or is that page too restrictive?
-I did something a week back and it started making me feel "happy" to see the result and I got excited about it and my first thought was that it was making me hypo. Do you guys still have a separate category for "happy" or does that emotion just blend into hypo?
