Bipolar Disorder is a behavioral condition characterized by episodes of extreme mood disturbances that may affect an individual’s behavior, mood, and thoughts. There are two types of bipolar disorders, namely Bipolar I (involving the presence of mania and depression) and Bipolar II (involving the presence of hypomania and often with depression). There is also a third, milder type of Bipolar Disorder called Cyclothymia.
The treatment for these conditions, as is the case for other disorders, depends on the individual’s unique needs. However, the treatment typically involves medications, psychotherapy, and lifestyle change strategies. This way, the holistic needs of the individual are addressed.
