I ended up having a depressive episode with mixed features. So I had severe depression but with racing thoughts, energy, needing little sleep, impulsivity, high anxiety, etc. To me, that's when I knew I didn't have just depression.

I'm BP2. Hypomania can come out as a lot of irritability, anger, energy, anxiety, etc. Or euphoric hypomania to me comes out as being a lot more motivated at work, getting a lot more done in general, being a lot more into hobbies, cleaning and organizing a lot, being more social, more into sex, maybe spending a lot more money. Racing thoughts, etc. Maybe sleeping less. A period of energy that is higher than my normal basically.
