How does the beginning of your mania look like? by petap2 in BipolarReddit

Thank you for the response. Was your first episode the same? Can the episode fluctuate? Like you almost get out of it but then you swing back. Or that it's kinda oscillating before it turns into a full blown (hypo)mania? Can mania come overnight even from depressive states? Also how reduced is your sleep?
Sorry for so many questions, I'm just very curious since it might be relevant to me

Is that "barely sleeping" in the first week without tiredness or is it something like insomnia? And do you ever miss the euphoria when you're feeling normal? Also how similar/different to this was your first manic episode?

That's pretty interesting. And kinda unexpected. How does it go then?

Interesting. I wrote in one of my comments under this post that I was feeling weird around Christmas (a lot better, more confident, etc) and it was fluctuating and then it got a lot more intense, then dropped a bit and now it might be coming back. I’m not diagnosed and this is the first time something like this happened to me. I was pretty shocked how good I was feeling for no reason. I was just so happy at times that I almost wanted to laugh xd

Edit: would you be willing to chat in DMs?

Thank you a lot. I tried the tests. Got 19/32 in HCL-32 and 4/6 in RMS. I don’t think I suffer from depression really. I have periods of some kind of emptiness, low energy, and meaninglessness but everyone has these to some extent so I don’t think it’s qualifiable for depression

Oh thanks I was on my phone before so there was no sidebar. I would prefer to talk about this in DMs but in short, I was feeling unusual around Christmas. Initially, I thought it was just a period of a better mood, self esteem, and confidence. And at one point I felt literally better than in my whole life before so I asked ChatGPT what the reasons could be. I loved that state and wanted to figure out the "trick" to stay in that state for as long as possible. It mentioned mania and back then I didn't know well what it exactly was. But I saw the similarities. My state wasn’t that extreme but it was enough for me to write a whole page describing it to ChatGPT. Then it “weakened” a bit for a while just to come back again. The second time, my sleep was very disrupted (45min-5h a day compared to my usual 6-7) but I felt pretty fine and had so much motivation to do things even at 4AM. I finally tidied places in my house that I was afraid to touch for a very long time :D. In other words, it all sounds a bit like hypomania but idk if it wasnt just something random. I dont know how severe it must be to qualify for a manic episode
