Hi,

first: I am not diagnosed with bipolar. I'm at a point in my life where I recognized that my depression is oddly regular and by thinking about this I found that I had times in between, were I was very energetic. So now I track my mood and see what happens. In the meantime I search for dialog and experiences of others to see if I can relate to that (does that make sense?)

And now I'm on fire the last 3 days. I feel constantly like I had too much coffee. (But I only drank my morning coffee like every day). I just want to DO things.. In January I was depressed and hardly functioning and now I can run around the whole day without feeling exhausted, want to chit chat with everyone and can't stop singing and dancing as soon as I cannot interact with other people. Last night I didn't want to sleep because I had so much energy I had the wish to do something meaningfull. So my poor partner had to listen to me talking about all sort of things. (At some point he said 'go to bed!')

Is this was hypomania feels like? I mean even if, that would just mean I have something to look for when tracking my mood and talking to my therapist about, but I was curious.

Greetings
