Eli5 why is mania bad?

715 views

I understand that this is considered a mental health disorder and I’m sure there is a reason why but Mayo Clinic says that mania is characterized by an extremely elevated and excitable mood. It sounds to me like I would enjoy being elevated and excited. Now I totally can see why depression would suck in the case of bipolar especially oscillating between the two, but unipolar mania is a thing too.

Good answers here. To put it as simply as possible, it eventually progresses to where it interferes with your life negatively, due to decisions made in an unclear state of mind.
