Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Well, I am not sure, but the symptoms that you have stated suggest that your husband could be having a manic episode. This is accompanied with increased irritability, reduced need for sleep, doing excess work etc. So these fit into your description. He will require treatment with olanzapine and valproate. This will improve the symptoms in 2-3 weeks.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
In future if you wish to contact me directly, you can use the below mentioned link:

Wish you good health,
