I have read that people with bipolar can experience a huge inner pressure to be expressive (part of hypomania and mania) and the way it comes out can be overwhelming for (some) other people. I would think that managing those impulses in a way that works well for you without scaring people off is a useful skill to learn - part science, part art.

I think it's something a lot of people deal with, bipolar or not. I remember being a socially insecure teenager and occasionally acting in ways I now see as being a bit "histrionic". I've realized now I was just trying to overcompensate for feeling like a socially awkward, forgettable idiot.
