Rapid cycling is 3 (4?) episodes per year.
Mixed episodes are depression and (hypo) at the same time and they are hell. I used to get them all the time before this med cocktail. It's been a while since I've had one after that.

Feel free to ask more if I didn't answer your questions fully. And welcome to MSF!
