Manic episodes can be triggered by sleep deprivation, as lack of sleep can disrupt the balance of neurotransmitters in the brain and lead to heightened mood and energy levels. Oversleeping, on the other hand, is more likely to be associated with depressive episodes. Manic episodes may also include a reduced need for sleep, but they do not necessarily produce more REM sleep.
