A 36-yr. old married woman with two preteen children has become increasingly irritable over the past 4 or 5 days. She is annoyed when her children talk to her and is easily distracted. She is only getting 2-3 hours of sleep each night and is awake during the wee hours planning a big party she wants to give. She seems to constantly talk but it is difficult for others to understand what she's saying because she jumps from topic to topic. She has been treated for depression in the past.
