Hypomania

Description

In this (pathological) state, the individual experiences inappropriately inflated self esteem and high spirits, hyperactivity and a craving for new experiences and stimuli. As opposed to mania, there is a relatively healthy ego which moderates behaviour; the sense of reality is not compromised and critical self-awareness is not completely lost.
