Extract

Mr. Jones, 30 years of age, presents to the office for the first time with symptoms of mania. He had gone through a period of increased spending during which he purchased thousands of dollars worth of audio and video equipment in addition to other items he could not afford. He is currently living with his parents due to his inability to meet these financial obligations. When his parents starting receiving packages at their house, they decided to have Mr. Jones evaluated. They note that he is awake much of the night talking on the phone and browsing the Internet. His bills indicate large charges for phone sex and pornography.
