Manifestations of bipolar disorder

Bipolar disorder, also known as mania, is characterized by excitement, talkativeness, and heightened moods. With treatment, these symptoms can be restored to a normal level, with no impact on work, life, or social interactions. Mania is a recurring disease, which manifests itself in talking too much, talking big, bragging, speaking especially fast, speaking in a high voice, as well as the presence of phonological and ideological associations, claiming to be the descendant of celebrities and that he is worth a lot of money, and also being agitated, easily provoked, meddling in other people’s affairs, and having a lot of actions and behaviors. After a clear diagnosis, a combination of mood stabilizers or antipsychotics is now commonly used to treat this manic symptom. During the course of treatment, drug concentrations need to be tested regularly to prevent overdose leading to side effects. Commonly used mood stabilizers are lithium carbonate, valproate, or magnesium valproate, and antipsychotics like olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone, aripiprazole, and so on. These newer antipsychotics can also be used as mood stabilizers, and can be admitted to the hospital if they are particularly euphoric and are not effective or more difficult to control.
