Also, sometimes the meds can make people hypomanic. I know a few people in my life who have been on this rollercoaster in attempts to reclaim past hypomanic episodes.
The elusiveness of hypomania is the pressing notion that it is "attainable". And I think this is at the heart of many people's pill search. Just because a legal drug makes one hypomanic, does not make the state 'normal'.
To make a long story short, I think it is also necessary to determine weather what one is looking for is indeed normal and realistic, otherwise bad things can ultimately result.Even mild hypomania can lead to 'significant burnout' down the road.
