Mania can resemble schizophrenia or even a crack high!
The woman in this video isn't saying or doing anything abusive. However, the video is being posted for those who have witnessed someone in a similar state of mind. When you challenge someone who is experiencing mania, you run the risk of having a very heated argument with he or she that just might lead to violence. Saying things like, "Shut up, you talk too d*mn much! You are a liar you know you aren't telling the truth! You aren't that smart, your dumb!" will only further infuriate the mania in the individual.
Here's another example...
When you notice such behavior, best advice, remain calm and find something else to do rather than have a conversation with he or she. If the manic person follows you around insisting to talk to you, remove yourself out of his or her presence and go somewhere in a public view. This way there will be other witnesses to the manic person's behavior. Never turn your back on them when they are in a rage.
