Symptoms of Mania
Categorized as a profound mood disturbance of elation, irritability, or expansiveness, a manic episode can drastically impair a person’s social and occupational functioning, and can also lead to hospitalization. Symptoms of a manic episode may include grandiosity, diminished need for sleep, excessive talking, or racing thoughts, among others.
Symptoms of Bipolar I Depression
Bipolar I includes the presence of depressive episodes, which can be characterized by depressed mood, or a loss of pleasure. Experiencing a depressive episode can impair one’s ability to function normally, and cause a huge amount of distress. Some symptoms of a depressive episode may include significant weight loss or gain, hypersomnia or insomnia, and loss of energy, among others. A Bipolar I disorder episode could be diagnosed as both manic and depressive.Volunteering for a clinical trial is one way to help in understanding and treating.
