Is blunted affect possible with bipolar?

I’ve never been able to properly express how I feel, and since I have been experiencing hypomanic and depressive episodes for a while now I’ve noticed just how bad it is. I can feel hypomanic inside my head but look, at least according to other people, like my normal self. Even when I tell people, “I genuinely do feel excited, I do,” I appears show little, if no, emotion. But that’s fine, I suppose, when it comes to to just eceryday moods but when I feel hypomanic and I can barely express it except by describing how I feel drives me mad, because people just think I’m overreacting and just feel “happy”.

I plan to go and see someone soon, but just wanted to hear what anyone thinks on here first, whether anyone has any personal experience with it.

Thanks. Peace. ☮️

I've got a blunted affect going on today. After 3 days of insomnia I could just drop at any given time. But my head disagrees.

There's no apparent excitement or elevated mood going on. I'm one excited zombie.
