I understand that this is considered a mental health disorder and I’m sure there is a reason why but Mayo Clinic says that mania is characterized by an extremely elevated and excitable mood. It sounds to me like I would enjoy being elevated and excited. Now I totally can see why depression would suck in the case of bipolar especially oscillating between the two, but unipolar mania is a thing too.

Some people experiencing the high of an episode might become outgoing and suddenly make new friends. It’s all fun and inspiring and positive until they come down and the new friend discovers that they’re a completely different person – and not always a very nice one – when they’re not having a manic episode. Not pleasant for either party involved.
