Hi, so I’m bipolar too and I think what you said is really interesting because I’ve had episodes where I’ve had horrible depression and at the same time I’ve had a lot of energy and I think that maybe sometimes depression can really come from outside sources so maybe your body still has the manic chemicals in your head. But they’re out side factors that are causing you to be depressed. I know that I’ve had both going on at the same time I’ve had episodes where I was literally crying every day but still going to school work taking classes for recreation doing yoga just all over the place but I definitely agree that you can have episodes within each other
