Mania (and psychosis) happens, and part of that is being impulsive and doing things out of character without an ounce of taking consequences into mind. We just gotta heal from the episode and learn from it what to look out for and what to do/not to do when things start heading south again. Using this, maybe we can skillfully avoid making the same mistakes, cut an episode short, or prevent it all together.
