Sounds like a curse. I get mixed states and have never had a case of full blown mania. My sister is type one and gets way manic and drunk and says the most mean, horrible things to me on facebook and texts in the middle of the night. I know it's the mania that's doing it but it still hurts. I'm praying for the day when she accepts that she needs help and goes to a doctor and gets treatment. She's under the delusion that she's "managing" her illness just fine with herbs.
