You get manic?
Yeah, but not depressed (or if it is depression it's otherwise what I've gone with as my baseline). On paper I'm written as Schizoaffective Unipolar, so basically mood swings precede the madness and doing things to self-medicate that shows promise.
The mania I have is raw paranoia as a variant, and at the end of the line the thoughts are going so fast that I'm not even in control of what I'm doing (more than my projective philosophy of how no one's really in control accounts for).
I lose the ability to answer any question from how everything feels like it has so many variables, and my self-accountability goes right down the toilet as I've otherwise hit people, ran into traffic, yelled at strangers, or otherwise acted out.
I've basically had to change my life to revolve around upkeep so that I don't do something stupid.
