    I am bipolar 1. My mania can last anywhere from a day to several months, depending on what triggers it and if something/someone is enabling it. I am mildly manic at the moment. I can usually tell when I can’t sleep and I get obsessive about a subject. Not taking my Seroquel can definitely trigger it or enable it.

    I hope you take care of yourself. Good luck!

      For the longest time I ignored every manic episode that lasted less than a few days. I always thought of a manic episode as something that lasts at least a month. Month long episodes only happen to me about once every five years, as I said in the meme. I just got over the last one. I’m way more down to earth than I was before, but not gonna lie, I’m still a bit hypomanic.
