I'd get rid of the mania and keep the depression. Mania is terribly terrifying for me, the restlessness, the impulsivity, the hostility, the rage. When I think mania, I think of the times I've been up at 3am pacing around crawling out of my skin screaming into pillows and punching walls. I think of the jobs I've lost and the times the police and EMTs have searched for me and dragged me to the hospital. I think of the times I've been so out of touch with reality i couldn't recognize my family. Yes i do get the euphoria but it doesn't make up for all the bad stuff.
