What is Bipolar Disorder?

Bipolar Disorder is a mental health condition formerly known as manic-depressive illness. It involves dramatic shifts in mood, energy, activity levels, and the ability to carry out day-today tasks. There are two primary types of bipolar disorder:

  • Bipolar I Disorder is defined primarily by manic episodes that last at least 7 days, or by manic symptoms that are so severe that immediate hospital care is needed. Usually, depressive episodes occur as well, typically lasting at least 2 weeks.
  • Bipolar II Disorder is defined by a pattern of depressive episodes and hypomanic episodes, but the manic episodes of Bipolar I Disorder do not occur.

Bipolar Disorder Causes and Risk Factors

The exact cause of bipolar disorder is unknown, but it can be linked to genetics, brain structure and function, and environmental factors. Risk factors include a family history of bipolar disorder, high levels of stress, traumatic experiences(OCD), and substance abuse.

Bipolar Disorder Symptoms

Bipolar I Disorder: Severe manic episodes can include feelings of euphoria, racing thoughts, increased risky behavior, and extreme irritability. Depressive episodes can include feelings of sadness, indifference, and hopelessness.

Bipolar II Disorder: Hypomanic episodes in Bipolar II may include elevated mood, increased productivity, and heightened creativity, which are less severe than full manic episodes. Depressive episodes may be marked by low energy, low motivation, and loss of interest in daily activities.
