I respectfully disagree. Happy is happy. I take joy in little things and a lot of those little thinks happen while (for me) hypomanic. I do not allow my state of mind to tarnish a good memory. I have accepted that my happiness comes in small doses and try to live in the moment when they happen. If I am under the warm sun walking the beach, I let myself get lost in that and don't think about why I was crying 10 minutes earlier and might be again in 5.
