First of all: when we contact and talk with the auto-patients, our attitude should be kind and patient; for those patients who talk too much, we should not argue with them, and even more so, we should not taunt them. If the patient talks a lot, we can take appropriate ways to divert his attention, if the patient has been talking to the guests, family members should remind him in words that time is late, it is time to eat or take a rest, or that the guests have other things to do, and this time the patient is generally very happy to accept.
Secondly: how to do a good job of impulsive, hurtful, destructive behaviour patient care, in the face of this kind of patient, the family must do a good job of prevention. On the one hand, this is to avoid provoking the patient, generally the patient's reasonable requirements, the family should try to meet them, so as not to cause impulsive and injurious behaviour. Another aspect is not to let the patient go out, because the patient in a crowded place, they like to show themselves, the more excited, which is very unfavourable to the condition. If the patient is too excited, he may hit and hurt others.
While taking precautions, we should also actively contact with doctors to accelerate the treatment, try to shorten the patient's excitement period, prolong the patient's day and night sleep time, and send the patient to the hospital for treatment if necessary. In addition, some manic patients will have hypersexuality, often chasing the opposite sex, nudity and other phenomena, for which the family must be watched over. It should be noted that the patient's impulsive behaviour is a pathological manifestation, the family must not use scolding, binding, physical punishment to restrain the patient, or not only does not help to control the condition, but will aggravate the patient's manic symptoms, increase hostility.
