I haven't had a full-manic episode since 2011, and I'm not that worried that it will happen. But I get manic enough to embarrass myself, or perhaps I should say I get manic enough that when I'm not, I get super paranoid that I will. I've become very reserved on Facebook and IRL. One time, my sister-in-law said (name changed) "Sometime I just really miss crazy-*** Danny." Not to toot a horn or something, but I was hilarious pre-treatment. Now I'm stony-faced and quiet a lot of the time. I'm so worried about hurting people's feelings or upsetting my wife. That's another topic.
