I say again in the words of Billie Holiday " strange fruit hanging from the...."

Mmmm does the following fit??

The term ‘mania’ is used to describe
the most severe state of extreme
elation and overactivity. A small
number of people with bipolar mood
disorder experience only episodes
of mania and do not experience
depressive episodes.
Common symptoms of mania include
varying degrees of the following.
• Elevated mood - the person feels
extremely high, elated, and full of
energy. The experience is often
described as feeling on top of the
world and invincible.
• Increased energy and over-activity.
• Reduced need for sleep.
• Rapid thinking and speech -
thoughts are more rapid than
usual. This can lead to the person
speaking quickly and jumping from
topic to topic.
• Recklessness - this can be the result
of the person’s reduced ability to
foresee the consequences of their
actions, such as spending large
amounts of money buying items
that are not really needed.
• Grandiose plans and beliefs - it is
common for people experiencing
mania to believe they are unusually
talented or gifted, or are kings,
film stars or prime ministers for
example. Often religious beliefs
intensify or people believe they are
an important religious figure.
• Lack of insight - people
experiencing mania may not
recognise that their behaviour is
inappropriate, although they may
understand that other people
see their ideas and actions as
inappropriate, reckless, or irrational.
•Mania is diagnosed when
symptoms have been present for
a week or more.
