Decreased sleep, weight loss, and increased talkativeness are common symptoms of mania. Mania is characterized by an elevated mood, which can lead to reduced need for sleep, more energy (potentially resulting in weight loss), and more frequent or pressured speech. Sluggish activity and muscle pain are not typical symptoms of mania; they are more likely associated with depression or physical health issues.
