I struggle when I go into hypomanic moments (or "hyper moments" as my friends call it). Sometimes it helps to find things that can ground you and slow your brain down a bit. I can findthat my brain rushes so fast round things that it doesn't get a chance to rest and I end up panicking because I can't sort things out in my brain. Making sure that you are sensible - try to give credit cards to family members so that you can't go recklessly spending, plan out meals so that you know you are eating properly, try to go to sleep at the same time each night even if you won't sleep (just spend that time in bed reading a book or something), gettiing exercise.
Try to keep everything as normal and balanced as you can, because htis can make hypomania more bearable.
