I guess you must of missed what I was asking you. I probably was not clear enough. I wanted to know if a Bipolar in their manic mood can behave the way I described. I am very curious as to what your experience is with regards to Bipolar patients. You must have allot to offer us with your perspective. I imagine some sort of an agitated state of mind may bring about this type of impulsive aggression. But what do I know? I really do not know much.

EDIT: An interesting article is Psychiatric Times. http://www.psychiatrictimes.com/bipo...polar-disorder

[some deleted of a very good article on violence linked to trauma in Bipolar patients]

Although trauma history has a unique relationship with bipolar disorder, it should be assessed in all patients to determine the risk of violence. Trauma is associated with increased aggression in adults in general, regardless of whether an affective disorder is present.

Interesting, wouldn't you say? It looks like even violence would not necessarily differentiate Bipolar from BPD, or either Bipolar or BPD from any other diagnosis.
