It is a serious sports excitement, irritability and impulsiveness on the background of unpleasant emotions, and more common retaliatory behavior. The patient is in a deep state of confusion and strong athletic excitement. He may have delusions and hurt people. Attacks and sabotage are common, and occasionally no purpose repeats or stereotypes. In the severe paralysis period, the mouth is unclear, the gait is paralyzed, and the excitement can be excitement due to environmental stimulation. There is a clear difference between the excitement and the disappearance of the simple drunkenness after entering the paralysis period. It can also be seen in extreme depression, frequent occurrences of crying or intense desperate anger, self-blame and sin, easy suicidal behavior, but different from simple drunkenness before committing suicide. The episode often lasts for several hours, and the patient is partially or completely forgotten after waking up.
