Manic episode: DSM-IV-TR criteria

1. A distinct period of abnormally and persistently elevated,

expansive, or irritable mood,

lasting at least 1 week (or any duration if hospitalization is necessary).

 

 

2. During the period of mood disturbance,

three (or more) of the following symptoms have persisted (four if the mood is only irritable)

and have been present to a significant degree:

(1) inflated self-esteem or grandiosity

(2) decreased need for sleep (e.g., feels rested after only 3 hours of sleep)

(3) more talkative than usual or pressure to keep talking

(4) flight of ideas or subjective experience that thoughts are racing

(5) distractibility

(6) increase in goal-directed activity or psychomotor agitation

(7) excessive involvement in pleasurable activities

that have a high potential for painful consequences

(e.g., engaging in unrestrained buying sprees, sexual indiscretions, or foolish business investments)

 

3. The symptoms do not meet the criteria for a Mixed Episode.

 

4. The mood disturbance is sufficiently severe to cause

marked impairment in occupational functioning or in usual social activities or

relationships with others,

or to necessitate hospitalization to prevent harm to self or others,

or there are psychotic features
.

 

5. The symptoms are not due to the direct physiological effects of a substance

(e.g. a drug of abuse, a medication or other treatment)

or
a general medical condition (e.g., hyperthyroidism).

 

Note:

Manic - like episodes that are clearly caused

by somatic antidepressant treatment

(e.g., medication, electroconvulsive therapy, light therapy)

 

should not count toward a diagnosis of Bipolar I Disorder.
