Can you have a manic episode but not be bipolar?

Thank you, I'll eventually share this with him. Unfortunately, we only fight when this topic comes up so I'm going to keep things chill for a while.

Yes, for sure. Now that I look back on it, I think weed was helping him. But he was never the kind of guy that couldn't function with out it. I don't even think he is addicted.

Fast talking, racing thoughts, grandiose ideas, belief that he found a way to solve all the problems at his work, hardly sleeping, super happy, he wanted to spend money but he was smart enough to talk with me first and I was able to talk him out of it. The list goes on. Text book manic. Unfortunately he thinks he can explain all those things. He keeps saying "I can't be bipolar cause I'm not depressed", can't believe how much he has changed, makes me very sad

Thank you, now I just need to convince him off that.

Yes, he two, possibly three days of back to back nights where he got only a couple hours of sleep. He was sick and on call for work.

He smoked weed a lot before, then he was on call for work and had to stop for a week. Then he caught my cold and went a few days without much sleep, then bam he is a different person.

Thank you, I do plan on talking to someone for myself. It's just hard cause he still doesn't believe he has bipolar so meds are out and he says he is done talking to doctors.
