So as someone who is normally hypomanic but had a reaction to antidepressants that put me fully manic for a while, I don't think hypomania really needs to be treated with anything other than talk therapy. If I'm aware of it, I can manage the downsides pretty well through emotional regulation techniques like breathing / meditation and exercise. Hypomania can be overall positive if you learn to control it. Mania on the other hand is basically like, you can't control the shit that comes out of your mouth. You act on every fucking thing that pops into your head, even when you recognize that it's hurting the people around you. You just can't stop yourself; its compulsive and incredibly distressing. People are uncomfortable around you and you can tell. Your judgment is impaired and you don't understand the grey area between right and wrong. You have like 15 thoughts flying through your head and you can't keep any of them straight for more than a few seconds at a time. It really, really sucks.
