The person cannot stop spending money in that disturbance. There are compulsive hoists. He takes what he finds, takes him home, doesn't throw, collects, and makes the house garbage. They also do shopping. And they can't stop shopping in any way. Bipolar discomfort, especially in the process we call hypomanic or manic processes, we see insomnia, much talk, quick anger, not listening to the environment as well as complaints, especially inconsistent and terrible money spending. Credit cards can be closed completely, serious debts can be taken from others. Even real estate can be sold at very low prices. In such cases, it is necessary to be extremely careful. The person needs to be treated”.
