In a way it is a good thing. Best thing is to get outside confirmation of your behavior. Behavior over time that show a pattern is important because I can just be happy and not hypo manic. My wife confirms when hypo mania is occurring. It is hard when you feel the good parts of that to accept that it is happening let alone accept that sometime soon you are about to have bad things like irritability and maybe paranoia or even true mania happen. If your symptoms last more than a few days that is key to seeing the behavior is chronic not just situational or normal behavior that results from maybe just having low stress. So it is time that is a really the important component and appropriate affect to situations in your life. Why is this all so important? Medication adjustment might be needed. If you are having episodes then you might need adjustment.
