Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has bipolar disorder. Which of the following actions by the client should the nurse interpret as displaying manic behavior? (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: A,C,E
Rationale: The correct answers are A, C, and E. Impulsive behaviors, interacting flirtatiously, and talking rapidly are classic manifestations of manic behavior in bipolar disorder. Impulsive actions can lead to risky behaviors. Flirtatious interactions are often inappropriate and lack boundaries. Rapid, continuous speech is a hallmark of mania, reflecting racing thoughts and pressured speech.
Choices B and D do not align with manic behavior. Sleeping for long periods is more indicative of depression, while dressing in black or grey clothing does not directly correlate with manic episodes.
