Yes.
But it's complicated due to my (borderline; neurotic-psychotic) personality, BPD. It's all or nothing, basically. But the close friendships are either less stressful or not at all (if they are similarly more or less borderline crazy). I prefer crazy people and there aren't that many.
I also really like talking to people I just met. It's less complicated/stressful and I'm generally talkative and interested in people and whatever they do really.

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
See Me, Feel Me, Touch Me, Heal Me.
