yeah, Bipolar. I'm curious about what a manic episode would be like since MDD just kinda sucks and is boring? so it'd be nice to have some extra flavor
mildly curious about Borderline since it seems people with it have really exciting lives (but it seems pretty shitty to have)
My brief description for mania is being absolutely, unshakably convinced that you are the coolest, smartest, sexiest, most capable, awesomest person in the room. Not in a self confidence way, but in an outright frightening unshakable delusion way. Kind of the opposite of when you're severely depressed and think you're the worst and everyone hates you, but that doesn't really convey the feeling.
