  1. Bi-Polar Disorder Causes, Signs & Symptoms, Preventions and Treatment.

  2. Bipolar Disorder Causes Signs & Symptoms Prevention Treatment

  3. Bipolar Disorder • Bipolar disorder, formerly called manic depression, is a mental health condition that causes extreme mood swings that include emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). • When you become depressed, you may feel sad or hopeless and lose interest or pleasure in most activities. When your mood shifts to mania or hypomania (less extreme than mania), you may feel euphoric, full of energy or unusually irritable. These mood swings can affect sleep, energy, activity, judgment, behavior and the ability to think clearly. • Episodes of mood swings may occur rarely or multiple times a year. While most people will experience some emotional symptoms between episodes, some may not experience any.

  4. Bipolar disorder appears to result from a combination of factors. • Genetic factors: Bipolar disorder is more common in those who have a family member with the condition. A number of genetic features may be involved. • Biological traits: Research suggests that imbalances in neurotransmitters or hormones that affect the brain may play a role. • Environmental factors: Life events, such as abuse, mental stress, a “significant loss,” or another traumatic event, may trigger an initial episode in a susceptible person. Causes:

  5. Signs & Symptoms People having a manic episode may: Feel very “up,” “high,” elated, or irritable or touchy Feel “jumpy” or “wired” Have a decreased need for sleep Have a loss of appetite Talk very fast about a lot of different things Feel like their thoughts are racing Think they can do a lot of things at once Do risky things that show poor judgment, such as eat and drink excessively, spend or give away a lot of money, or have reckless sex Feel like they are unusually important, talented, or powerful

  6. Signs & Symptoms People having a depressive  episode may: Feel very sad, “down,” empty, worried, or hopeless Feel slowed down or restless Have trouble falling asleep, wake up too early, or sleep too much Experience increased appetite and weight gain Talk very slowly, feel like they have nothing to say, forget a lot Have trouble concentrating or making decisions Feel unable to do even simple things Have little interest in almost all activities, a decreased or absent sex drive, or an inability to experience pleasure (“anhedonia”) Feel hopeless or worthless, think about death or suicide

  7. If you've been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, some strategies can help prevent minor symptoms from becoming full-blown episodes of mania or depression: Pay attention to warning signs. Addressing symptoms early on can prevent episodes from getting worse. You may have identified a pattern to your bipolar episodes and what triggers them. Call your doctor if you feel you're falling into an episode of depression or mania. Involve family members or friends in watching for warning signs. Avoid drugs and alcohol. Using alcohol or recreational drugs can worsen your symptoms and make them more likely to come back. Take your medications exactly as directed. You may be tempted to stop treatment — but don't. Stopping your medication or reducing your dose on your own may cause withdrawal effects or your symptoms may worsen or return. Prevention There's no sure way to prevent bipolar disorder. However, getting treatment at the earliest sign of a mental health disorder can help prevent bipolar disorder or other mental health conditions from worsening.

  8. Treatment Treatment aims to stabilize the person’s mood and reduce the severity of symptoms. The goal is to help the person function effectively in daily life. Treatment involves a combination of therapies, including: medication counseling physical intervention lifestyle remedies It can take time to get a correct diagnosis and find a suitable treatment, as individuals react differently, and symptoms vary widely. .
