above exactly described what a manic episode is. It is not a disorder in and of
itself but is a part of a type of bipolar disorder. Manic episodes usually last
a period of one week where a person has an unusually irritable mood and is
notably persistent in attaining goals presented to them. These episodes in mood
disturbances are observable by others and can be compared to their usual
state/behavior. If episodes occur very often they may impair overall functions
of a person (e.g. work conditions, friendships, education).
