Bipolar question
Can you have an 'episode' but not be manic?
I know I'm not manic, I'm not doing or thinking about doing any of the things I do when I'm manic, but I'm feeling very stressed and everything, which is leading to self-harm and that. I have exams next week, my dad is dying (good), a load of my financial paperwork has been lost by someone I trusted it to, which has application forms and evidence for loads of different things, just general rubbish life stuff.
Now I feel like I can't mention it to my team, in case they think I'm manic, which I'm not. I'm not pretending to be, I don't want to be, I'm having an anxiety? episode outside of that.
Do you have to be healthy, when you're not manic?
(I only have manic episodes, I have never experienced a low)
