10 Symptoms of Manic Depression
Symptom #9: Inflated Ego
We have all met somebody that has a very high opinion of themselves. It is not uncommon for some people to have a huge ego, but this is not usually something that can be considered clinical. Most of us tend to have far more balanced opinions of ourselves, and we will often accept the bad as well as the good.
When somebody with manic depression is going through a manic phase, however, their sense of self-worth can go through the roof. They will consider themselves to be the best and the funniest person around and will often become quite the exhibitionist. Their sense of superiority might even cause them to hurt others’ feelings as they speak down to people as though they are inferior.
