Soooo....
I never knew what a mixed episode was. I thought that I was just "Manicly Depressed".
I have been experiencing a mixed mood episode. After crashing into a depression for the last two months due to a manic summer, I now know that the way I feel right now is called a mixed mood episode. My therapist helped me figure this out when I had explained to her that I feel burst of confidence and radiant euphoria and then get angry and hostile and defend Kevin Spacey because I feel bad for him.
They're not fun. I feel tormented and crazy. I am ontop of the world but anxious. I once read a book about Anne Boleyn where the last days of her life were (what I think of as) a stress induced mixed mood episode.
