As a person who suffers from mania I would argue that everyone "suffers from it" does not apply to mental illness.

Do you have 3 or 4 days in a row where you can't sleep? Do you send emails to everyone at three in the morning that are totally crazy (such as only a maniac would write)? Do you speak at company meetings and have one of your employees write "shut up" on a piece of paper and hold it so that only you can see it?

Your comment is offensive.

sorry I agree that such extreme cases shouldn't be called mental illness and grouped with symptoms op is describing.
> shouldn't be called mental illness

What should mania be called?

mania?
