10 Mania Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Mania is not a medical condition on its own, it is part of something called bipolar disorder (also called Manic-depressive illness). Bipolar disorder is a condition where the patient shifts from long periods of deep depression and maniac episodes that usually last one week.
Individuals going through a manic episode can appear to be extremely optimistic and abnormally engaged in goal-oriented activities. They can become irritable and angry. The changes that occur during mania are severe enough to cause issues or negative effects on work, school, and relationships with friends and family. Those who are close to the individual usually notice these changes.
