Dysphoric mania includes anxiety. Severe anxiety, agitation, racing thoughts, irritability/anger/rage, etc. -and dysphoric mania is frequently part of a mixed-state episode.
For me, severe anxiety is probably the most difficult aspect of BP.
Okay, but your question....I wish I knew how to answer it. Do you mean "general anxiety" as might be experienced with GAD...or OCD? As in "normal" anxiety? I'm sorry; I'm trying to understand your question.
