A nurse is conducting an admission assessment for a client who is experiencing a manic episode of bipolar disorder. Which of the following behaviors should the nurse expect? (Select all that apply)

A reason: Grandiosity. Grandiosity is a common behavior in manic episodes, where the individual may have an inflated sense of self-importance, abilities, or identity. B reason: Flight of ideas. Flight of ideas involves rapidly shifting from one topic to another with little to no logical connection between them. This is a characteristic behavior during a manic episode. C reason: Splitting. Splitting, or viewing others as all good or all bad, is more commonly associated with borderline personality disorder. It is not a typical behavior during a manic episode of bipolar disorder. D reason: Hyperactivity. Hyperactivity, including increased energy, restlessness, and engaging in multiple activities simultaneously, is a hallmark of a manic episode. E reason: Withdrawal. Withdrawal, or social isolation, is more characteristic of depressive episodes rather than manic episodes of bipolar disorder. During mania, individuals are more likely to be excessively social and active.
