A patient diagnosed with bipolar disorder is dressed in a purple leopard and bright floral scarves. The patient twirls and shadow boxes. The patient says gaily. "Do you like my scarves? Here they are my gift to you." How should the nurse document the patient's mood?

A. Irritability involves anger, frustration, or easily annoyed behavior, which is not reflected in the patient’s joyful and playful actions. B. Suspicious mood would include mistrust or paranoia, which is not evident in this patient’s behavior. C. Euphoric mood is characterized by exaggerated feelings of well-being, elation, or joy, often with energetic and flamboyant behavior, as demonstrated by twirling, shadow boxing, and offering scarves as gifts. D. Confidence refers to self-assurance and poise without the intense elation or overexcitement seen in euphoria.
