Cyclothymia 2

Cyclothymia 2 is a rare variant of Cyclothymia. It's when you cycle from normal euthymia and mild to moderate hypomania and it may or may not include the normal case of the blues that last a few days, but no dysthymia. So cycling between Superhappiness and Normal Mood and the occasional case of the blues. Anxiety may also occur or anger but that's sometimes mixed states of when you're in the Superhappy state but are upset and anxious so you suffer sideways instead of the typical down of dysthymia or depression. This is typically different from regular Cyclothymia or Cyclothymia 1 as Cyclothymia 1 is when you go from Superhappiness mild to moderate hypomania to normal and then to dysthymia mild depression for a while and the mild depression or even moderate depression isn't just a case of the blues and sometimes there's mixed states with Superhappiness turns into anxiety and anger which is again suffering sideways instead of down and sometimes boredom. Some luckier people don't even get a case of the blues, but I do. I either have Cyclothymia 1 or Cyclothymia 2.

It's part of the bipolar spectrum.

Cool dude: I have either Cyclothymia 1 or Cyclothymia 2 with the occasional case of the blues. I experience Superhappiness, then Normal mood. Sometimes anxiety and sometimes anger, then dysthymia or mild depression or maybe just a case of the blues, then keep on cycling. Some people are luckier and get Cyclothymia 2 without the case of the blues. Sometimes there's spending sprees. Imagine periods of normal mood with a normal range of emotions and then you cycle to Superhappiness and Superemotions where there's anger, anxiety, boredom, less sadness for the suffering end and Happy as the normal and Superhappiness as a you're having a good time, then you clean everything like if you're on Adderall or something. Sometimes Cyclothymia 2 and ADHD co-occor, so as long as there's Depakote, it's safe to prescribe Adderall, Adipex, or Ritalin for ADHD as Depakote prevents hypomania and also depression or dysthymia.
