Acute mania can be very disruptive to a young person
unless that person is experi-
enced with dealng with such a situation.

Even an older person experi-
encing acute mania will have
difficulty reacting to the
stares and prejudice engendered through the passion of his or her acute
mania(remember acute mania
doesn't possess the severe
psychotic element of Bi-polar
disease).
