When I posted that, I was at the tail end of what I guess was a hypomanic episode. I have a really hard time telling the difference between full blown mania, hypomania, and mixed episodes. They don't always seems so clear cut, and sometimes it seems like I can go from one to the other. It was four days of little sleeping and intense "revelation" so I think it was hypomania, because the full blown manic episodes that I can remember ended in pretty serious consequences (being hospitalized, losing a job.. that type of thing).

Anyway, I'm taking all of my meds faithfully and I don't want to end up out of control again. I just feel like a lot of the "crazy" thoughts I have when I'm manic are legitimate. Just because most people would roll their eyes at my ideas, doesn't mean they don't have merit. Right?
