[|Human|] Is there a condition that manifests as occasional bursts of manic-like behavior, i.e., rapid fire talking, extreme jumping from one thing to another unrelated, extreme distractability, . My husband does this, especially when driving or going somewhere new. If he has a couple of drinks, it s worse, although it doesn t happen everytime he drinks. Talking so fast, not really listening to my responses, it s almost as if I m not there, he s so busy commenting on things he sees, it s almost like he can t get the words out fast enough. Always in a good mood , or high when this happens. Any thoughts? I can t figure it out.
[|AI|]  Hi, What do you think is the problem due to this kind of behavior. Does he incur losses or get into trouble by deciding on things much faster? Problems due to inability to persists on a task?if it occurs for at least few days at a stretch- it could be Hypomania it's not persistent, and he also goes for milder slowing, decreased esteem or low mood quite often, then it could be CYCLOTHYMIAMood changes occur normally too. Those people often with high energy are also called HYPERTHERMIA. Unless it is bothering his activities or relationship much, you need not worry.
