I was depressed but undiagnosed for a few months, decided to get help "soon", but then got better, much much better really quickly; went to see a psychiatrist anyway and she called it manic and bipolar 1. Got me started on meds that day and I was feeling kinda normal within a couple weeks. She did let me go without hospitalization, which I'm grateful for, even if it did mean I had to struggle a bit for a week or two to not do anything too stupid.

Still kinda miss how good it felt, but it really wasn't a good thing for work and life in general, so....
