When I get hypomanic, I can get a bit careless with the spending. I do have a lot of unnecessary debt because of it. I also can get reckless with driving during those times, easily doing speeds that could very well get my license revoked or worse. I tend to get hung-up on grand plans when I'm hypomanic. Alot of times they revolve around financing. So I might put things in motion before I've done enough research and I get bit in the ***** because of it. I've made poor choices looking for the miracle cure for debt and short term financial growth. Also, I've gone through 3 car purchases in the last year. Rolling negative equity over on each purchase.
Here's my state of mind in hypomania:
This will work.
It is the only way possible.
This is the best and only solution to the problem.
We need to execute this now, now, now!
I just bought a car last weekend.

But I think this time, I got lucky and had time to come to my senses a bit. When I evaluate the decision I made, I think I made a good decision. Believe me, I had some insane ideas this time around too. My wife can attest to that. It's definitely crazy when you look back on it, but it seems so right and sensible at the time.
