That helped a lot though I have to wonder why I’m ramped up crying instead of the fun hypomania where you just talk a lot and everybody thinks you’re the life of the party!
My last round of mania was like that; it wasn't fun AT ALL! It annoyed my family, and that upset me. I felt tired physically but couldn't sleep. I'd start projects but be too amped up to continue, the overspending caused fights with H about finances. NOTHING about it was fun at all, and I was glad to get back to relative stability that time around.

I don't know that you even still are hypomanic but full-blown manic already.
All I know is in that state, H would have carted me straight to the psych ER, especially if I wasn't sleeping because for me full blown psychosis with blackouts follows on its heels.

Be careful, defintely steer away from caffeine if you aren't already.
