This is the most common thing that bipolar individuals do.
But after the manic stage climaxes, you'll get depressed! And it will be very hard to regain your neurochemical balance back...
Even if you do have the mildest form, please don't neglect doctor's suggestions... :( At least consult him regularly and do not neglect yourself...
