although most of my mood swings in the past years have been drastic, i usually didn't realize it myself until someone pointed it out to me.
when i was in a 'high' state/manic my head would spin, i was extremely sensitive to every noise, light and movement. i would also talk 10 miles a minute. i then would have to remove myself from the environment to avoid freaking out. felt like i drank 10 cups of coffee.
for the depressive state - i wouldn't eat, sleep all day/not sleep enough, agitated, sensitive, etc. this was about 3-4 years ago when my mood swings were extreme.
i've been on a mood stabilizing combo which i think helped a lot. i still get manic, but its not as extreme as before. i still get the head spinning, environment sensitivity, and i still definitely talk a lot really fast. sometimes so fast that i would stutter and get mad. i catch myself now and try to calm down before someone has to point it out to me.
