At the end of an episode (hypomania, mania, depression, mixed, etc.), do your symptoms slowly disappear, or do they suddenly disappear?
I know we're all different, so I was just curious ![]() |

I didn't have episodes. My level is manic.
Now I've had this crushing depression for like 10 months. It started overnight. I guess is lifting very very slowly. I don't want to go Home anymore. But I'm still very slow and unproductive. |

Sorry to hear that! Depression is no fun, and yes, my depression starts overnight too. Isn't it strange how depression starts suddenly, but takes forever to fade away? |

I suffered with this disorder long before I knew what it was and was able to analyze it correctly. I've only been REALLY paying attention to my patterns for a few years. I can look back and clearly recognize severe depressions and mania in my past, but I don't have enough insight to recall how I transitioned.
Now that I've been paying close attention, here is what I feel happens for me. My hypos start out mild and sometimes stay reasonably mild. I do not recall ever waking up in full blown mania from a depressed or stable state. (Not saying it hasn't happened in the past, but I don't recall it ever happening) I transition from mania, into a more agitated depression (a scary place to be) and progress into deeper and darker depression. If I'm perceiving my patterns correctly I seem to go through transition phases. I have went from manic to depressed overnight or even in the same day, but it starts as an agitated depression and moves into a near comotose type. |
