What you are saying makes perfect sense to me as I have felt that way before when in a severe manic episode. The universe was magnificent and all my senses were alive making smells, sounds, colours and other visual aspects so vivid and intense. It was AMAZING. I also thought I could heal people by thought and went about trying to do that every day. When I came down I saw that my perceived powers were false, nothing had come of all my efforts and energy to heal or move objects (another power I thought I had). Luckily I was in hospital so the impact on me was buffered but I did embarrass myself with some family and friends, and the medical staff of course.
I guess I am saying be careful. You could harm yourself or your reputation, or even livelihood. Is there a therapist or psychiatrist you trust that you can talk to about this? Keep posting and let us know how you are going.
