I tend to hover between hypomanic, possibly manic, and occasional mixed episode. I used to be depressed every winter but that stopped about 9 years ago. 

I can't even tell what normal feels like.  There was about a month around August this year where things calmed down, and I was confused and lost thinking back for at least the past year +. It was like an accident victim looking at the car going "I don't know what happened". 

Do you guys get level periods? Are some of you like me constantly up and down? How does it work for you?
