the only symptom of (hypo)mania I don't relate to at all is the talking too much/loud/fast. I definitely feel an increased urge to communicate and share my (uninhibited) thoughts and feelings and call people up more than usual, but I don't talk so much or so fast that people can't follow or get a word in. In fact, sometimes I have so many thoughts moving so fast that I feel like I CAN'T really talk, or don't even want to try - this is when I actually avoid people so I can be alone with and write down all of my *amazing* ideas

what about you?
