Question:
Answers:
mania is a medical/mental brain disorder caused by chemical imbalance in the brain, usually associated with a bipolar brain disorder, that causes unusual shifts in mood, energy, thoughts and ability to function. Different from the normal highs and lows, is severe, it distorts moods and thoughts, and cycles with extreme depression to extreme highs.Delusions of one or many types, hyperactivity, racing thoughts, insomnia, hyper sexual, accompany the manic phase, with extreme lows,depression and even death on the other end of the scale.Person's in the manic phase may advantage and pleasure,but in reality the illness is destructive, and life threating.
It is thought to be biological in origin but this have not been proven, although it tends to run in families. It requires medical attention, and there are many medications that can reduce the extreme highs and lows, many are non compliant with medications especial in the manic phase because of the productiveness they feel. It is a lifelong illness, can be present in childhood but usually first breaks accure between 18-25.
