Sometimes I overreact, also mostly when I'm irritable. But it's hard to know, really, whether it's an overreaction because I'm on the inside. Sometimes I can tell when I look back on it, or in the moment, but then sometimes my husband gently nudges me toward that conclusion as well. I don't think, for me, overreaction is a result of merely being bipolar though. I am *very* sensitive to hormonal changes, so some of it comes from that.
