Question: A couple brings their 12 y/o son to the clinic and reports that he has periods where he seems very happy and will act silly which is a complete departure from his usual behavior and seems unusual for this age compared with other kids. He is also noted to have more trouble with sleeping and talking really fast about a lot of different things. He doesn't seem to recognize how his behavior is annoying others and he gets into arguments with his siblings over trivial things. Other times he seems subdued and uninterested in things, makes statements that he doesn't feel loved and is stupid. Need Assignment Help?
