Hey :)

I know SSRI antidepressants can up your thoughts of self harm and suicide but it does tend to pass after the first month or so in my experience. The adjustment period can be a little rough. Give it time but make sure you are aware of when it gets too bad because it might just be that the pills you're on are not right for you and you don't want them to have any negative effect on your mental health.

Slight mania is sort of normal too and is even linked to the thoughts of harming yourself from what I've read. Again it's something to watch. It should even out more as your body adjusts to the pills and the effect they are having, but if you feel it is getting too much don't be scared to talk to your doctor about it. About any of it. :)
