Other symptoms of the manic mood are the person needs little sleep, he gets easily distracted from this train of thought, he believes he can do many things which are unrealistic, the individual may exhibit poor judgment, may also have an elevated sexual drive, may behave provocatively or aggressively and will deny that anything is wrong with him.

The depressive episode of an individual suffering from disorder may have the following symptoms; a very lengthy sad or empty mood, a pessimistic view of things, a constant feeling of hopelessness, loss of interest in things he previously enjoyed, feeling slow or fatigued most of the time, restless or irritable, may have ideas of suicide or may even try it, may gain or lose weight and may have difficulty thinking or concentrating on things.

A person suffering from disorder will need to be diagnosed properly by certified professionals before any medication or treatment will commence. Sometimes, symptoms may be overlooked because disorder usually develops during late adolescence or early adulthood. During these times, teen-agers are usually angry, full of angst or depressed. Parents need to be concerned when the feeling of their children does not go away soon or if they exhibit any of the symptoms of a disorder.
