I become an arrogant jackass if I am more than slightly hypomanic. If it is just slight, it is like being high; I grin and sometimes chuckle for no reason. I feel good. I feel smart. I feel younger and in better shape and barely recognize the imposter in the mirror. The weird thing is it is easier for me to react to slight hypomania than hypomania that is more than slight. That's because I lose perspective and believe that really I am smarter than everyone around me and talk over the top of them because what I have to say is more important. I can even have a delusion that I have special mental powers. I run around looking for debates/arguments. I think I am profound but in reality I don't complete a lot of my sentences and I leave out whole chunks of what I am trying to say.
