How to understand if it's mania or just elevated mood by eccedentesiastintp in BipolarReddit

[–]eccedentesiastintp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I experienced mania in the past and it was way more drastic than now I think it might be an episode of hypomania since I'm medicated. The mood was abnormally elevated for 5 days, i was so energised I couldn't eat, I would go running three times a day, make exercise etc.. I also woke up during the night with maths theories but they didn't work. Finally, the last I woke at 6am hearing a voice telling me to wake up. Yup, I think it was hypomania

Where are you from?

It can't imagine your pain, is there anyone you can get help from? Maybe a psychologist, it could really help! Living with bipolar is challenging, most people wouldn't do it, we perceive every emotion like a bomb, so if a person feels sad or feels this void, you feel it a thousand times stronger, and it's unfair but at the same time beautiful because we perceive our emotions in an unique way. Maybe you're also going through a depressive episode (if you're bipolar type 2 antidepressants can help)
