Mania

Everybody knows a fact that we need good mood to do or to speak. Mania is a part of condition of mind like mood disorders. There is unique level in every field like minimum level, maximum level and in between these levels, the central level is required level. The welness of mind and body, depends on this level and always good will be in the central or moderate level. If this level is out of boarder levels, viz, below the minimum and above the maximum, the problems start. We can see even in physical world, eg, if the electricity load will be more than required, the fuse wire will be cut by overload or if there is not enough electricity the bulbs will not light up. If the sun’s heat will be more or if temperature will be very low, there will be problem to life. In our body itself, so many problems are which we do not know, eg; if the sugar in the blood will be more, it would be a hyper glizemia and when it is low, it would be hypo glizemia. If the pressure in the blood is higher than required level, it would be hyper tension and when it is low, it would be hypo tension. If the water in body is low, there will be problem and when it is high also, there will be problem. Anyhow, anything what we need must be in normal level. Here in the case of mood also, the normal level of mood is important for normal level of mind.

See one of my experience. Once an young person joined in my office. As he was an admin person, ours were the same cabin. I noticed him from the begining, there was some abnormality in his all deeds. He was so talkative, restless, behaviour that feels he knows everything, many projects, phone calls, plans, impatient to anything, such types of actions were being done. Once I jokely, told him that “you are a half mad” (because if I told him seriously, it would affect his mind and this type of men, would never accept that they have got some problems). Actually he was a man with mania. Since he joined here, he had been going for interviews in other companies, once in a week. But he never passed interview till he was terminated after one year.

We are interested to see a doctor if we are suffering from any minor illness. But in the case of psychological illness, the public are least interested to cure it or to see a doctor. In the consequence, the unrecognized illness of mind is increased, such types of so many cases are among common men. The above said story is an example. These men face failures and hatred in life.

What is mania ?

We need a good sense to determine the things to be done and seen with all its real meaning. To do the same, we need good mood. If an adequate mood which we need, breaks or increased, a condition called mania will be formed in our mind. This inequality of mood, is mania.

Somebody tells, I do not have mood to do anything or there is a mood out. Actually, this is a common saying, because when the common people bored or getting lonely, they feel a boredom and so this can not be taken as mania or mood disorder. But somebody thinks more, or do more things, or showing exaggeration by unlimited phone calls, always busy busy, there will be a mood disorder. This is a hereditary illness, but it may also happen without heredity. Sometimes, this may been seen with depression and shown psychotic symptoms. This is known as manic depressive psychosis.

Mania may lead to depression also. This is known as bipolar depression. Depression also happens without mania and this known as unipolar depression.

Symptoms

Patient has plenty of ideas
Phone calls
Deeds without real sense
Projects
Watching TV, etc. etc. with high volume
Purchasing goods and thereby lavishness
Always busy. No free time.
Irritation.
Insomnia
Even if no sleep, no weakness.

The above said things are related to mania and not there will be also added some psychotic symptoms. Here in manic depressive psychosis, both symtoms will be shown. And there will be shown the symptoms of both also.

In this way, if you see anybody with the above symptoms, go to a doctor and instruct for a better treatment in the early stage. If it is done in early stage, we can develop a good personality and win in life.
