Let's not forget our friend 'dysphoric' hypomania- put simply, just the opposite of euphoric.It's often referred to as a mixed-state, meaning that the unlucky bastard on the receiving end is both 'manic' and depressed at the same time(depressed, but with an uncontrollabe surge of anger/energy).In practice, this can mean being in a barely controllable(or uncontrollable), sometimes enraged state with little or no restraint over your thoughts or actions.Unsurprisingly, it is very dangerous, and not much fun.People in this state often act on suicidal impulses they previously managed to control.
