Can hypomania feel like this?


Question Posted Tuesday September 3 2013, 10:33 am

I was diagnosed with bipolar II. And my hypomanic episode now is kinda weird because yesterday i was talking, dancing, jumping, happy, everything was ok, even small fails kept me saying "who cares? life is beautiful", like normal hypomanic episode with a lot of things going on.. today I feel energy that I need to use, but I dont laugh non stop and Im not really that clingy I just feel the energy I cant sit normally I keep shaking my legs, hands, I have many things to do, Im spontaneous and my senses are more sensitive and I feel more than happy. Like, can hypomania be one day more severe than the other day?

Hypomania can moderately more or less severe on some days. Generally though the more severe the "up" part of your hypomania is, the more severe the "down" part will be. It's normal to not be able to sit still, and feel extremely motivated. If it feels different than it has before, you may want to talk to your doctor (if you are seeing one) so that they can alter your treatment. Hypomania can sometimes progress in to full blown mania. People with mania are hyperactive, with limitless energy and extreme euphoria. They have feelings of power and mastery, intensely interested in and talk about one thing after another, moving on quickly unable to concentrate on any one thing. People with mania swing into depression a lot quicker and a lot more severe.

So yes, it can be a little more severe on some days as opposed to others, one cycle can be more heightened than others. But be sure the tell your doctor or psychiatrist about the changes so that they can monitor your treatment properly.
