title: Funeral mania in recurrent bipolar affective disorders: reports of three cases.
abstract: Anniversary reactions as precipitants of manic episodes are reported to be relatively common, while manic onset within a week of bereavement ("funeral mania") has been considered rare. Three cases of funeral mania are described to illustrate that this phenomenon may be more frequent than has been thought.
