Eli5 why is mania bad?

731 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.

The problem with mania is that every idea seems like the best idea ever, even if it’s a terrible idea. People experiencing mania make baaaaad decisions.
