Episodes of bipolar depression

Posted , 2 users are following.

I know that with bipolar that there is mania, hypomania, and depression and that someone with bipolar 1 transitions between the two/three.

What I wanted to ask is the transition period between mania and depression. For example if someone was having a manic mood for a while do they wake up the next day depressed or is there a buffer in between? People explain what each episode does to the individual but no one seems to explain how they transition from manic to depressive or vise versa. Thank you.
