I can't really figure out the distinction between just feeling good and having an hypomaniac episode.

I read the other answers but they sounded like "its a manic episode but smaller". How much smaller exactly?

If a patient experiences mood swings with energetic episodes that make his life easier, and this carries on for many years, how can he tell whether he has a mood disorder or just evolved to be a person that is more energetic?

Is BP2 really a separate disease, or is it just what we call people who don't fit other diseases because they sometimes feel great?

Honestly, if a psychiatrist asked me if I have hypomanic episodes, I wouldn't know the answer.

I understand but please do come around to it, it's the top voted question after all.
