I’m type 2 and I feel like I don’t deserve this diagnosis

I don’t want to make anyone else feel badly, but since I have been diagnosed as Bipolar Type 2 I feel like I’m a “fake” bipolar patient. I’ve heard stories of people ruining their lives while going thru a manic episode. Spending all their money, cheating on their SOs, going on insane adventures, and I feel almost bad that I don’t experience that. Like it’s some rite of passage that I just haven’t gotten through.

I get hypomania. I do, but the episodes are kind of nice and fun and like I’ll be super social for awhile or I’ll get super creative and do a bunch of art or something. I have the depression part, oh boy do I, but without the mania I just feel like I don’t belong in the diagnosis. Idk, I know it sounds horrible and I should be grateful I don’t get manic (I am) but I feel like I don’t belong in this community.
