mania: hypersexuality and agitation
depression: loss of interest and enjoyment of things I used to love and like.
pretty sure these 2 are common.

I don't really get manic but I've been hypomanic (I'm somewhere on the bipolar spectrum) and my main symptom is being angry and irritable.

My main depressive symptom is fatigue (but when I was severely depressed I couldn't concentrate on anything and I had suicidal thoughts too)

When I'm manic, I have a strong feeling that every moment of my life is absolutely special and something really big is going to happen. I have also significant problems with concentration.

Depression means for me loss of energy and motivation. And suicidal thoughts. I recognise two types of them: the "better" one is something like "I want to die" and the worse one is "I should die because I'm so bad person".

Mania: racing thoughts that cause everything to spiral out of control
Depression: worthlessness, feeling lifeless
Mixed: severe agitation and anxiety that puts me in a hole I can't dig my way out of
Hypomania: hypersexuality and heightened creativity

depressed: feeling suicidal

their has never been a time where I have been depressed, and I have not been suicidal (if their has,, I don't remember it). feeling suicidal is a given

mannic: probably singing kids songs at the top of my voice

or bouncing on my bed
