Understanding Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition where people experience extreme shifts in mood, energy, and activity levels.
Individuals with elevated mood, also called mania, might feel like they can do anything. This can lead to making decisions without thinking about the consequences.
During the depressive phase, they might feel extreme sadness, and lose interest in things they used to enjoy.
These extreme changes can make it hard for them to keep relationships, jobs, and do everyday things.
The cycle of bipolar disorder is unpredictable and affects every part of a person's life.
It's important for someone experiencing these symptoms to get professional help.
With the right support - like medication, therapy, and a good support system - people with bipolar disorder can learn to manage their symptoms and live fulfilling lives.
If this sounds like you or someone you know, ask for help.
