Mood changed from depression (down in the dumps) to feeling extremally excitable?

I’m excited to be going on vacation in 8 weeks to Sri Lanka. When I get these uncontrollable bursts of excitement and happiness it makes me want to drink alcohol but I’m quitting. 4 days now no alcohol and I’m going to continue not drinking until I go on vacation and hopefully carry it forward on vacation

Do you think its a general excitement because I’m going away or could it be hyper-mania?.

I’m spending hours and hours thinking and planning/reading backpacking adventurers travelling around the world. kinda spending a lot of time doing it.

This happened to me yesterday, before that day I was feeling low in mood and had trouble sleeping. Then the next day I woke up feeling like life is a party and was acting very happy. My mood went back to normal when it was night time…
