I was diagnosed about 4mos ago with unspecified bipolar. I definitely understand the depression side of it. Could somebody please explain the manic or hypomanic side of it? Basically all I know is having a lot of energy, god complex, sleeping less. I'm sure there's a LOT more but I don't know much about it so I can't tell if some of the symptoms I'm having could be mania or hypomania. Also, are mixed episodes where you feel hypomanic/manic and depressed at the same time?

Any other info would be appreciated. I'm so confused by what symptoms belong to which of my mental illnesses at this point. 

Thanks in advance, hope you're having a nice day
