Along with this I pace a lot , find it difficult to concentrate at work for long periods, and spend a lot of my energy on hobbies.

Yeah sounds like hypomania to me too.
Can you call your doctor?

I don’t think it will. It will just go away and I’ll lose interest. It happens quite frequently.

Yes I’m not but they said that abilify acts as one. Still I might contact them if it causes financial issues or disruptions. I don’t think others notice aside from my mum and partner. I’m usually not this active but I’m also not appearing way out of hand.

@anon25873142, Or it could be that manic depressive people in general lean towards the creative side. I myself, for example, am a composer, poet, lesbian erotica, and short story writer (horror), and student pianist.
