Good luck to ya!
Well this mania started off very dark and I was suicidal. It keeps switching between euphoria and dysphoria. I love the euphoria. It due to my ptsd triggered mania that I am already IP. Wish it would stay happy but I fall into darkness at times with same racing thoughts, pressured speech, anxiety and agitation. I feel like my brain is trying to process trauma but switches to euphoria as a defence mechanism to keep me safe. At all times I feel like a god and that i can change the world in a powerful way and know ALL.

I have been reading on spiritual emergencies online where mania can lead to spiritual awakening. Thing is, I am not religious at all but do have a spirituality of sorts even though I lean towards atheism.
