Honestly, I think I've been having hypomanic episodes lately even though I've been getting normal amounts of sleep. I've started to look back on my past behaviors where I was, for months at a time, spending $3000-4000 A MONTH on random crap online. I had newfound "hobbies" that I was trying to get into, and I was buying some of the more premium products for what I actually needed. The items were all random crap, with most of them not interesting me anymore.

Nowadays, I spend like $300 a month in total (after paying rent, internet, and utilities) on necessities like groceries, cleaning supplies, hygiene products, etc., with occasionally some fun stuff I buy online.

I'm really reckless with money when my mood gets elevated, and sometimes I become reckless with driving as well (like going 95 mph or more on the highway).

I also get really chatty, I guess? I start talking to people and holding long winded, one-sided conversations. (Normally, I never approach people in real life. I am very reserved and introverted.) I can never tell when I'm boring people if my mood is elevated. I just keep talking and talking and talking, and never realize what other people think. I think I chewed another member's ears off the first time we met IRL a few years back. lol
