Question

On an impulse, Jaxson decides to throw a huge party. After four days of round-the-clock work to get everything ready, Jaxson welcomes more than 200 guests. When the police stop by because Jaxson has blocked a public road in order to have room for the party, he flies into a rage. It is MOST likely that Jaxson is experiencing:

(a)- Manic phase of Bipolar I Disorder

(b)- Chromosomal disorders.

(c)- Complex disorders.

(d)- None of these

Answer 1

Answer: alternative A.

Explanation: The impulsive decisions, less need to sleep and obsessive behavior towards an unusual activity, followed by dramatic mood swings could be pointing to Bipolar Disorder symptoms. Usually, after a rage burst like the one that happened when the police arrived, Jaxson would feel very tired due to the decrease in energy levels in his body and seem to be very calm. Such temper changes are presented when a person has this kind of disorder.
