My friend Caleb thinks I'm hilarious when I'm hypo. We have these long, laughing conversations on the phone. I've been known to dance and bounce in my seat and bang my kitchen utensils on the table repeatedly at a restaurant. Of course when manic, I wasn't that funny. Nobody noticed except my case manager and pdoc that I was manic. I am in this big bipolar study that's been ongoing for over 10 years now. Early on in the study, I was in my pdoc's office. The head of the study was this guy named Melvin. I'd seen his pictures in his newsletter on the study. One day, I was in my pdoc's office and who should pop his head in but Melvin! Without any thought, I waved wildly saying "Hiya Mac!!!" He gave me a look like "Crazy bipolar people..."
