I have family and friends with Bipolar 2. I hate to harp on this, but they plain and simply cannot relate to our full blown manic episodes over here in Bipolar 1 hell. Having said that, here is my burning question. My posts don't get much traction lmfao but here's to the old college try. here it is:

Can forming an intense connection with a man (I'm a grown ass woman btw)...aside: man with mental health struggles himself...a twin flame sort of connection...lead to hypomania or perhaps a relatively stable state catapulting into mania? DID THIS FAST FALL INTO LOVE TRIGGER MY HORRIBLE AND LONG MANIC EPISODE?

Please weigh in with your opinions, thoughts, experience... crying emoji but psych ward was GREAT for me. yay.
