So I had my meeting with my psychiatrist (who is also my therapist) today. I was in the process of telling her that my hypomania was gone, and I couldn't stop myself from telling her how wonderful my life is, how this forum is amazing, how I was feeling so much better than I was earlier in the week when I was hypomanic.
The thing is, I couldn't shut. I was oozing with effusiveness, which is one of my hypo signs. I was effusive about not being effusive, if that makes sense.

I sincerely wanted to go deeper but I was 100% unable to. I was also crying when I was saying how wonderful things were, which is another symptom for me.

At least I was able to say that I was less hypo, but still hypo. She also confirmed my thinking that I was bipolar II than bipolar I. I asked her how I can get it changed in my medical record, and she said if I went inpatient I could petition to get it changed.

I did go on and on about how helpful this group was.
