I was thinking there is a fine line between feeling good and feeling way to good if you get my drift. How have people noticed when they start to go towards mania?

The biggest is that I don't sleep because I'm so wound up "working" on something. Don't eat or drink much, either. I also get irritable with my family.

Hi BPQuestions. For me, it is usually accompanied by other indicators. I get really social and hyper-productive and start to write like crazy. I start to feel things a little deeper. My sense of humor is heightened as well. My true happy is characterized primarily by contentment. I'm not content when I'm on the way up to mania. This is just me, though!

I sleep waaaay less and wake up pumped. I talk fast with a million ideas going at once. I can't sit still. Even then I don't realize it until someone points it out.

When I dont sleep for days yet I can run a marathon... which quickly in a matter of days has me in a hellish state.
I strive to be content.. happy is a word that just doesnt feel right to me.

I do t sleep much and my mind races like crazy. I can be irritable. I get hyper religious and sometimes that turns to psychosis.

I get an inflated self esteem and feel euphoric. Those are my first signs.

When I get way too "into" a certain project, person, or outcome, where I feel invincible and overly confident, when people try to bring me back down to reality. I get angry and upset at people who I perceive as trying to ruin things, when really they want to steer me away from bad decisions. I'll make plans way too fast and think I can take on the world, without thinking about how much something will cost or the risks that come with important decisions. My sleep is never really that good, but I sleep less when manic or hypomanic. I can be up for hours and hours without feeling the need to sleep at all. Eventually, it becomes full-blown mania, until I finally crash.

Lack of needing sleep is my indicator. A few very good days but I'm sleeping is not something that concerns me....if however I stop needing sleep it becomes something to watch.
