After suffering from depression for years, and other having inexplainable to me feelings/actions that were unable to be helped, I had a manic episode, and discovered I had bipolar disorder!. During it:
* I couldn't sleep!. I had about 1 hour of sleep a night, and didn't feel tired!. I had too may thoughts running through my head to be able to sleep!.
* Auditory and visionary hallucinations!. I kept hearing my phone ringing over and over, no matter where I was!. I was so real that for the first few times I would check to see who was calling but I wasn't actually ringing!. I also saw cloud-like swirls floating down from the ceiling and around the room!. I could also "touch" them!.
* I truly believed that I was incredibly smart!. It was as if something had been unlocked in my mind and I was much smarter than I was before!. I thought I could understand things that most people couldn't!. (Strange thing was, I did better on IQ tests whilst manic, than I did while "normal"!.)
* I believed that I had psychic powers!.
* All of my senses were amplified!. I could see things in a wider spectrum, sounds appeared much louder etc!.
* I couldn't eat!. All I could do was drink!. I made me feel sick even thinking if solid food!.
* I felt like I was on some sort of wonderful drug, though it was also scary!.
* I had a heightened level of creativity!. I was able to think of things and write stories I wouldn't have been able to do now!.
Those are that majority of what I can remember of that time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I probably have bipolar!. It takes me a milisecond to be angry and depressed and it takes me a milisecond to pop out of it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I have bipolar disorder myself!. It's been a big struggle!. I've known about my bipolar only since 12/31/2007, but it all started since I was 15!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
