Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Jack's symptoms of normal behavior followed by depression and hyperactivity suggest a pattern consistent with bipolar disorder. Mania alone would not account for the depressive episodes, and schizophrenia typically involves symptoms such as delusions and hallucinations. Depressive disorder alone would not account for the hyperactivity that follows.
