similar - when I have manic episodes I suddenly become extremely outgoing, the center of attention at parties, that sort of thing, but I'm more introverted in my "normal" state. I don't consider myself to have things extremely bad though because there are so many other people in the world so much worse of. I find that AS and Bipolar interact in ways different to either condition on its own. The way I experience manic and depressive, but especially manic, episodes is different. I won't go into further detail here but I created a sticky thread in this forum for bipolar/AS combo people to converse and at the start of the thread and within the thread I go into a lot more detail about my own experience.
