What is Bipolar Disorder

Some days to weeks you feel overenthusiastic, extremly energetic and full of self esteem. Your thoughts start running so fast that you can not stop at any one thought. Your family tells you that you have started spending on foolish things, you are spending hours being talkative, and stopped listening to others. You feel that you can handle anything, and your confidence reaches impossibly high. You may become aggressive and occassionally violent towards others. You don't feel the need to sleep anymore, and can function even with 1-2 hours of sleep at a time. If such a situation describes your behaviour or someone you know, they might be suffering from Bipolar Disorder.

Other times you feel lethargic, cannot get your mood up. You are excessively tired, fatigued. Nothing feels happy anymore. You cannot get good sleep and feel sleepy and tired during the day. Your energy is constantly low. Somedays you struggle to get out of bed. Your appetite is at all time low. You may feel that life is not worth living and may even have suicidal ideas during this time. Such a situation may be a sign of Depression.

Patients with Bipolar Disorders may have Manic or Hypomanic Episodes, and Depressive Episodes other times. Life feels like a see-saw of energy, emotions and your capacity. Some weeks you are UP and other weeks you are DOWN.
