Your protection: Even though hypomania may lead to increased productivity and creativity,patients may engage in pleasurable activities that may have a high potential for negative psycho-social or physical consequences (e.g., the person engages in unrestrained buying sprees, sexual indiscretions, reckless driving, or foolish business investments). Pls use your medication as prescribed.
