What weird things do you do when you're hypo/manic?

I tend to run around and jump. lol. Like, when I'm in my house, I run around while jumping over random objects.. I also like to jump and touch the ceiling, and I never get bored of it. That's totally weird, isn't it?

I also like to suck on my food because I think all food is candy. For example, I'll put a french fry in my mouth and suck on it for like 5 minutes before chewing it.

Apply for jobs I'm not qualified for (actually had an interview for a dog grooming position even though Im legally blind), watch porn for hours on end (sorry tmi, I know lol ), apply for school with no intention of going back once I crash, clean my bathroom at 4am...I know there are other things, but I can't think of them.

I email world leaders telling them how to run their country in order to stop wars. I also ask them for confidential papers about Nikola Tesla. So far only the USA has responded and the FBI did send me a little info about Tesla.
I'm must be on lists world wide by now for one reason or another.

I go to Europe, and instead of visiting places that I probably won't see in a long time, I send messages to the bipolar forum.

I tried moving to Montana, even though I couldn't afford it and still can't.

I also try to write this really great sci-fi series of books, except I can't write for a hill of beans.

When I'm manic I spend time writing "motivational essays" that I'm sure will cure people of any unhappiness they have. When I read them when I'm stable, I realize they're completely off the wall ramblings that make no sense.

When I'm hypo I'm glued to my phone. Switching between apps such as games, fb, and here. Always checking for updates and I go to each app over and over finding things to do. And I text a lot. So much that my friends get sick of me lol

When I'm manic I like to make weird concoctions of mashed fruit and water and drink everything through straws, and complain about electrolytes and how I'm missing mine. I also text everyone like crazy and listen for weird sounds outside.

Primarily I like to talk.

Lol!

I'm going to visit things today! I swear! I've just been super busy with work... getting there for 8am and leaving at 6pm. Then I'm too tired to do anything. It sucks...

Since now it's the weekend, I'm able to see things. I'm going to visit some historical sites and see other popular attractions. Although, on Thursday I went with some co-workers to a few "historical" bars that were established during the 1600s. That was pretty fun! The bars brew their own beers, so you could try a lot of different ones. There was even taste-testing to try all their different ones.

i bounce on the bed, singing the animal song (which is a song i made up)

i have a fave animal, a kitty is it's name

the kitty says meow meow, it purs and goes meow

i have a fave animal, a doggy is it's name

the doggy barks and goes woof woof, and howls at the door
i have a fave animal, a piggy is it's name

it goes oink oink and snorts a lot

and so on, and so on, through about 50 diffrent animals while i'm bouncing on my bed

something else is that i believe i'm a circus act and try diffrent tricks. balancing, juggling, etc

and i make a song out of everything.. i sit on the chair and start singing i'm sitting on a chair, sitting on a chair, i'm sitting on a chair. or i'll be making a drink.. i'm making a drink, making a drink, have you guessed what i'm doing?. i'm making a drink

or just anything at all

I talk much more than usual.
I sometimes think I am cured and ready to take on things I am not ready to take on. (hypo)

It's all good. That's why I said "weird" -- as in something you normally don't do.

At least you're honest!

I get a lot of physical energy and will run and clap and pretty much buzz around the house.

I do this sort of thing a lot too when manic/hypomanic also. I write things and get the idea I will be a famous author or that it's of such importance, when really it's just rambling or pointless.

Other things I've done while manic: sent a letter to an old boss telling them how great they were just so they wouldn't have the FBI investigate me, I've planned and booked fancy vacations for myself and offered to pay for others to come along with me (but it all falls apart....and I really don't have the money for that), I laugh like crazy at nothing, I get mad at people who do not like my ideas, although my ideas are half-baked. I text people I should no longer get involved with, sometimes meeting with them and getting sexually involved with them.....the list goes on and on.
