The correct answer is A. bipolar disorder.Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition characterized by extreme mood swings, including episodes of mania (elevated mood, increased energy, and impulsive behavior) and episodes of depression (low mood, fatigue, and feelings of sadness). The behaviors described, such as staying up all night creating elaborate art projects and then feeling sad and tired for two days, as well as spending a large amount of money on unnecessary items during manic episodes, are consistent with the symptoms of bipolar disorder.
