Sam a 36-year-old white male presents to your office for initial medication management. His wife, Ashley, is with him and helps to provide information. Ashley starts by saying that Sam has been uncharacteristically irritable for the past four days. He "wakes up on the wrong side of the bed and makes negative comments about anything that anyone in the family does". He has been short tempered with the children and has been unable to help them with homework. His sleep pattern has been disturbed and he has been getting only 2 hours of sleep a night. Sam complains: "I can't get my mind to slow down". He has found it hard to remain focused at work and becoming easily distracted. Ashley is most upset that he emptied their bank account two days ago on a shopping spree. What type of episode does this describe?
