Because I want to keep my energy on the one hand but on the other I want to share the joy I feel with others. So if they can absorb some and feel happy I'm down with it.

By the way my energy theory is holding true. I picked up my son and he's leaching the energy right out. I'm getting irritable instead of elated.
I have the same theory. In short I am very sensitive to other people's energy. Mostly negative energy which will bring me down pretty quickly. My boss will sometimes feel like a vacuum... vacuuming up any good energy I am feeling. I also know that when I am hypo it rubs off on people. Sometimes I think I can feel the energy vibes coming off the person... either they are radiating out... or sucking the life out of those around them.

Sometimes when I am proactive I try to imagine myself in a protective bubble that will not let any of my good energy escape and will reflect and bad vibes.

Anyhow... hope you are doing ok. Sounds like you are trying to be proactive and aware. I just moved into a hypomanic state yesterday, so I will stop rambling!
