Understanding Bipolar Disorder: Recognizing the Signs and Seeking Help

Are You Experiencing Extreme Mood Swings? These Fluctuations Could Signal Bipolar Disorder

If you notice significant changes in your mood, energy levels, or activity levels, it’s important to understand what you're going through.
Bipolar disorder is characterized by episodes of mania or hypomania, which can include heightened energy, euphoria, or irritability.
Do you experience periods of depression where you feel hopeless, fatigued, or uninterested in activities? These depressive episodes are a key aspect of bipolar disorder.
Rapid mood changes, where you feel extremely happy one moment and deeply sad the next, can be common.
Are you engaging in risky behaviors during manic phases, such as overspending or impulsive decision-making? These behaviors can lead to significant consequences.
Feeling restless or having trouble concentrating during mood episodes is another sign that can impact daily life.
Do you experience sleep disturbances, such as needing less sleep during manic phases or sleeping excessively during depressive phases?
