10 Signs of Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar Disorder Sign #4: High Energy
Adversely, another symptom of bipolar disorder is excessively high energy. The patient can feel as though they just don’t want to stop and are eager to take on any challenge that comes their way. They will find it difficult to keep still and will often undertake even menial tasks such as housework with enthusiasm.
These high energy levels can have their drawbacks. The patient’s over-enthusiasm can lead to them taking on tasks that they are not up to. Especially when the mania wears off. Some patients even claim that they prefer their depressive episodes because they feel as though they have more control over what they are doing.
