listen, when i got diagnosed bipolar 2 years ago, i pretty much trusted it because i wasn't having severe enough symptoms to destroy my life entirely, but everyone keeps telling me that my "hypomanic" episodes are way too long for bp2 and then calling me out for saying that you can be psychotic during a hypomanic episode.

ok, you got me. it's probably bp1. not that i can get in to a therapist anyway but i guess if i haven't come down since september that's probably past the criteria for bp2. 

it's a weird feeling but also like. whatever, i guess. idk. just wanted to post about it bc i feel weird about it. but i tried to join the bp2 reddit board and i related to very little bc i don't think i've ever experienced a true depressive state that wasn't blended with mania into a mixed hell state.

which seems incredibly unlikely with bp2 and also my years-long manic episodes. lmao. at least my symptoms are relatively mild within that framework? i've never been hospitalized and i'm holding down a part time job + freelance work without meds. working on self improvement always tho.
