> In mania, you might see a lot of impulsivity, rage (not just irritability, but serious anger and aggression, maybe violence), delusional thoughts, psychomotor agitation (not being able to sit still, that kind of thing), feeling like you have lots of energy and can do anything, etc. Anxiety might include things like excessive worrying, jitters, and avoidance behavior.

Cause if you give a patient an SSRI who you think has severe anxiety and it turns out they really are bipolar .... things get ulgy fast .... mania, depression, cycling, suicide, etc. It would be nice to know the difference before.
