Also, more for my own knowledge, if someone is bipolar, but manic only, does the that just make them manic? That seems like saying a depressed person is bipolar, even though they only have depression.


Someone can be unipolar depressed or manic. There was a lot of talk about this during the election, when people discussed Trump's need for less sleep than most. People also say the same thing about Bill Clinton, that he seems to be in a constant state of hypomania.

No idea if either of those is true, but it makes sense that if someone can have unipolar depression then others can have unipolar hypo/mania. It wouldn't be called BP at that point.
