What events and behaviors are preceding this claim? Neurodivergence coupled with bipolar or other disorders that come with manic states aren’t uncommon, and definitely don’t mean you’re crazy. I ask that because if you’re actually manic it’s crucial that you know, so you can avoid the worst that can come with it. However, if you’re not manic then it’s important to also know you’re not manic

well running away is the biggest one cause i left the state the other day and i would've again today if i wasnt forced to stay at the house, i might still actually. and whining online that everyone including all my friends hate me and are conspiring against me and if i tell any of them that im gonna run away, they'll tell everyone and stop me. im actually pretty sure you're the friend or one of the friends worried about me and you're asking this to confirm, so you should just text me instead

i don't think others being manic means they're crazy, but i think people telling me i'm manic is them telling me im crazy and they're trying to lock me down and prevent me from leaving or driving away

It does sound like you’re experiencing a manic episode. I can’t talk to the rationality behind running away, but I can say that it sounds like an impulsive decision which is incredibly unsafe for you. I hope you’re safe, and I hope you’re okay
