I've only been hospitalized once, for SI, but there are a couple of times when I was manic that I should have been, and almost was. I'm not sure I'd have the insight to go in during a manic episode, but I have no problem spotting a major depressive episode and I won't hesitate to admit myself if I ever get to a place again where I can't trust myself to be safe.
