Midori has bipolar disorder. I gave it to him on accident. And that might be a sign for me to get that checked out sooo
When it comes to him, he's more depressive than manic, but at the same time he's also more manic than depressive (His words).
So...How the hell did it become noticable?
Whenever he becomes manic, he would either be more irritated (like he was when he was younger), or he'll be more egotistical and reckless. It can be all of that mixed together.
(Note: These manic episodes range from Euphoric, Dysphoric, and both depending on the day)
Sometimes it gets to a point where he almost kills himself via the following: Drowning, fist fights, getting splatted, poisoning, and much more
An example of his recklessness could be during his debut as agent 4. Marie found out about how reckless he was during his fight with the octolings, but she brushed it off for a while. It became concerning the amount of times he loses his armour before taking the mini zapfish to heal himself just to do it all over again
Another example would be the time he drank the testosterone shot (with the assumption it would do the same thing as taking a shot) and claiming he's the manliest man of the entire world. He was too prideful to think about the consequences that he let himself be more childish for once.
A THIRD example is when him and his friends won a championship, and he took all the credit for it despite it being a team effort. (Thank god his friends didn’t get mad at him for it).
And the fourth example: His cleanliness. His room is always clean, and it's always misinterpreted as him being an orderly person. Which is ironic since he chose team chaos and is the most chaotic person in the group (pre splatoon 3). He always cleans up his room even in the middle of the night when he shouldn't be doing that. (He still does it to this day).
When Midori's depressed, he's more distant to his loved ones, and secluded himself to his room. He becomes more avoidant, and tries to make sure to push anyone he cares about away from him with his words. Sometimes his solitude in his room lasts for weeks that he would almost forget to eat unless someone brings him food.
Examples of this: When he had finally developed his humanoid form, he felt so dysphoric that he not only covered any mirrors in his room, but he hid under his bed until Emerald got him out. That lasted for months on end, especially with the gender dysphoria elevating his episode.
Another example being his fomo during university. He was willing to work on his homework and assignments but began to fall slightly behind because of how shitty he's feeling having to juggle so many things at once. His FOMO for missing out on splatfests and all that fun stuff made him feel even shittier that it caused him to miss an important aspect in the security of the memverse.
A third example: Because he just felt like shit.
It doesn't have to be some random reason, he honestly felt like shit one day.
Anyway that's all I got for this guy! Yes he has medication for it (mostly anti depressants) and is functioning as well as he could (somewhat)
