i was flipping through Kay Redfield Jamison's An Unquiet Mind last night and came across mention of a theory that mania is an extreme form of depression.
what do you think of this?
when i was acting crazy and felt sick but good last year, i called it "nihilism." i felt so bad that only doing crazy things made me feel good, i was absolutely drawn to them and it repercussions didn't matter because i was going to die anyway.
anyone care to comment on the theory?
