Hypomanic Episode
Depressive Episodes
During a manic episode, individuals may engage in reckless behavior—for example, risky sexual behavior, excessive spending, or impulsive decision-making.
An individual experiencing a hypomanic episode may experience similar symptoms to those of a manic episode, but their functioning won't be markedly impaired.
Some people with bipolar-type disorder also experience depressive episodes.
