Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive illness, is a mental health condition identified by extreme mood swings. Individuals with bipolar disorder may experience episodes of mania, where they feel elated and energetic, and episodes of depression, marked by overwhelming sadness and lethargy. These mood swings can significantly impact a person’s daily life, relationships, and overall well-being.
Recognizing the symptoms of bipolar disorder is vital for initial intervention and effective treatment. Some common signs of bipolar disorder include:
During manic episodes, individuals may engage in risky behaviors without considering the consequences.
Heightened irritability and agitation are often present, making daily interactions challenging.
Drastic alterations in sleep, such as insomnia during manic phases and excessive sleep during depressive phases.
Impaired focus and concentration are common during both manic and depressive episodes.
Individuals may experience intense highs (mania) and lows (depression).
Manic episodes are characterized by elevated mood, increased energy, impulsivity, and distorted thinking, often leading to risky behaviors among many individuals.
