The nurse should document that the patient is presenting with manic behavior. Evidence for mania includes inappropriate physical activity, extreme generosity, bright, happy, or "loud" clothing choices, and high spirits. Mania can appear as harmless eccentricity or happiness but can be very distressing for the patient.
