my boyfriend has been complaining that im no fun anymore. he says im more tired, and slow, and i joke less and laugh less and play less. i feel pretty much the same, maybe more tired overall. but i dont feel drastically different than my usual self. is it possible he's noticing a difference in me that i cant see? or is he maybe exaggerating small changes in my mood like me being more tired? i really dont know what to do when someone tells me im being less fun...

Maybe he's seeing your manic side as your normal side and therefore everything else is slow in comparison?

Make sure you bring up your boyfriends concerns at your next T/pdoc appointment.
