Patient's question:
Doctor, I feel like my husband has been emotionally unstable recently. He's like a furious lion, very aggressive. Maybe it's because of the high work pressure. I'm very worried about him.Hello doctor, can the herbal medicine Biological Mood Regulation and Calming Pill treat mania?
Doctor's answer:
Traditional Chinese medicine lacks evidence from evidence-based medicine to prove its effectiveness in treating mania, making its reliability difficult to determine. Moreover, based solely on the symptoms you have described, it is not sufficient to diagnose a recurrence of mania. Additional criteria such as duration, agitation, excessive talkativeness, overestimation of self-worth, boastful or grandiose behavior, reduced deep sleep, hyperactivity, and impulsive or guilt-ridden actions must be considered. It is best to undergo a thorough examination at a specialized hospital or psychiatric department. If it is confirmed, it is advisable to receive standardized medical treatment.
