Compulsive talking (or talkaholism) is talking that goes beyond the bounds of what is considered to be socially acceptable. Studies have shown that most people who are talkaholics are aware of the amount of talking they do, are unable to stop, or do not see it as a problem.

Kids with ADHD often have trouble with “too much behavior”—too much talking, humming, noises, movement, fidgeting, wiggling, getting into things, etc. This overactivity and the constant struggle with self-control can be very frustrating for the child.

Some people with schizophrenia appear to talk to themselves as they respond to the voices. People with schizophrenia believe that the hallucinations are real.

There are many potential causes of pressured speech, including schizophrenia, some forms of anxiety, and bipolar disorder. In all these cases, pressured speech may present with some or all of the following: rapid speech that does not pause for others to speak. disorganized thoughts expressed through words.

To the researchers, the results suggested that there’s a non-physiological basis for speech-rate differences. While fast-talkers naturally read aloud at a faster pace, researchers surmised that most people top out at about the same speed.

Liars are sometimes called “fast talkers,” but the speed of their speech varies as much as an honest person’s within a conversation. Pace isn’t the only speech pattern that can trip up a deceiver. Research has shown that a person’s vocal tone will waver from baseline in up to 95 percent of all deceptive statements.

Both a manic and a hypomanic episode include three or more of these symptoms:

• Abnormally upbeat, jumpy or wired.
• Increased activity, energy or agitation.
• Exaggerated sense of well-being and self-confidence (euphoria)
• Decreased need for sleep.
• Unusual talkativeness.
• Racing thoughts.
• Distractibility.

Bipolar disorder can cause your mood to swing from an extreme high to an extreme low. Manic symptoms can include increased energy, excitement, impulsive behaviour and agitation. Depressive symptoms can include lack of energy, feeling worthless, low self-esteem and suicidal thoughts.

The manic episodes of bipolar 1 are typically worse than the hypomanic episodes of bipolar 2. Bipolar disorders are a group of mental disorders that cause dramatic changes in a person’s mood, activity level, and ability to function. People who have bipolar disorders have emotional states that are extreme and intense.

The main difference between bipolar 1 and bipolar 2 disorders lies in the severity of the manic episodes caused by each type. A person with bipolar 1 will experience a full manic episode, while a person with bipolar 2 will experience only a hypomanic episode (a period that’s less severe than a full manic episode).

Many experts say cyclothymic disorder is a very mild form of bipolar disorder. No one is sure what causes cyclothymia or bipolar disorder. Genetics play a role in the development of both these disorders. People with cyclothymia are more likely to have relatives with bipolar disorder and vice versa.

Bipolar IV, identified by manic or hypomanic episodes that occur only after taking antidepressant medications. Bipolar V, which refers to patients who have a family history of bipolar disorder but only have symptoms of major depression themselves.

We found that a history of bipolar disorder significantly increases the risk of dementia in older adults. Our results provide robust evidence that mood disorders in general, and not only major depressive disorders, are associated with increased risk of dementia (17,18).

There are four types of mood episodes in bipolar disorder: mania, hypomania, depression, and mixed episodes.
