I have Recurrent Major Depressive Disorder, and sometimes - but not often at all - I feel like I have a somewhat manic state. It is very very rare, but it happens once in a while. It usually happens after I've felt very down for quite some time, and then suddenly, out of the blue, I feel like I'm SO happy, but in an agitated sort of, almost annoying way. My mind goes ten million miles an hour, I talk fast, and I don't sleep and I get LOTS done.
Then, after feeling this way for maybe a day (or not even a whole day), I'll crash BIG TIME. I will feel the worst depression ever in my life after that.
Is this a brief episode of bipolar or something, even though I'm not normally bipolar? Or is this normal with regular depression?
