Introduction to childhood mania

Childhood mania. In the rapidly developing 21st century, not only adults are under heavy pressure, but even children today are also under pressure from their parents, teachers, etc. This has led to more and more children having many psychological problems or other problems. What we are mainly introducing to you today is childhood mania, which is also a common problem nowadays.

1. Mania is characterized by high mood: it manifests as intense and lasting joy and excitement, the feeling that everything around is full of vitality, thinking that there are no more troubles in the world, and feeling good about oneself. This happy mood comes from the heart, and the person is often irritated by trivial matters, and even hurts people and destroys things, but after a moment the anger turns into laughter, and the person apologizes and is still ecstatic.

2. Mania is manifested by significantly accelerated thought association: the patient's thought association is very rapid and covers a wide range. Typical cases may have "sound association and meaning association". Many patients feel that their tongues cannot keep up with their thoughts because the speed of their thought association is so fast, and they think they have become smarter.

3. Mania is manifested by increased speech and activity: patients are often eloquent, talkative, change topics very quickly, are interested in various activities, and have significantly more daily activities than usual, manifesting as psychomotor excitement, many opinions, high demands, often underestimate objective difficulties, and implement some unrealistic plans without hesitation, resulting in nothing being accomplished. Some patients are usually very frugal, but become particularly generous after the illness, spend money lavishly, spend money without planning, and give away expensive and newly bought items to others casually, and sometimes act rashly and rudely.

4. The symptoms of mania in children include sleeping late, not getting up, not washing, and not going to school. They are also unable to control their emotions, so sometimes they feel that study and life are particularly boring, and sometimes they are in high spirits and want to study again, and this cycle repeats over and over again. Generally speaking, children's mania is caused by too much pressure from life and study; their mood can fluctuate several times a day: they may be well-behaved and obedient at noon, but become wild in the afternoon, laughing and making noise from time to time, making people feel at a loss. Experts say that children suffering from mania will experience a decline in their abilities, including learning, organization, and planning. As they grow older, the condition becomes more difficult to control. These children have relatively weak planning and organization abilities and are more likely to encounter setbacks in their studies. Moreover, when children with mania grow up, the rate of alcoholism and drug abuse is twice that of the general population, and the suicide rate is as high as 20%.

Through the detailed introduction of our article about childhood mania above, we know that the main manifestation of mania is abnormally high emotions. The patient's thinking associations are also very rapid. Many patients and friends think that they have become smarter because their thinking is too active. Our parents should pay attention to the emergence of these problems. It is very likely that they have mania.
