It's different for every person.


I'm aware.  However, in bipolar disorder, depression is one of the episodes, and in general, not an emotion.  A mixed state is where you have two symptoms of either episode at one time.  How can a person be happy in a depressive episode?

I think I am generally healthy, although I think I might have body dysmorphic disorder.

Happy and depressed = bipolar.


 
Not quite. Mixed episodes are rare, and they're not really "happy and depressed." Mine are "energetic and suicidal."
