My latest hypomanic episode had me deep-cleaning my house for 6 hours. When I was in 5th grade (11 years old), I had a similar experience. I had this episode where I spent most of my hours cleaning the house and yelling at anyone who ruined my work. It looked like I had contamination OCD, but it only lasted a few days, so I clearly didn’t. After I cleaned up my entire house, I went out to the *STREETS* with a trash bag and started cleaning up the streets. I wanted my entire neighbourhood to be spotless. My neighbour told me I was going too far. I even made a plan, wrote it down on paper, and explained to my dad how I was going to get the whole world to be clean. And then in middle school (8th grade, 14-years-old, when my mental health was declining), I remember telling my dad that I felt so good and happy (basically how I feel now when I’m hypomanic). But I also had this one severe depressive episode where I made a plan to starve myself until I was 0kg.
