Bipolar disorder: How is it expressed?


Bipolar disorder is characterized by temporary mood swings. Extreme excitement is replaced by a drop in mood, reaching even depression.

Sometimes mood swings happen suddenly and quickly, and sometimes they happen gradually. During a depressive phase, a person may exhibit all or some of the symptoms of depression.

During extreme mania, a person can be hyperactive, overly energetic, and talkative. This obsession often affects a person's judgment, intelligence, and behavior in society, which often leads to serious problems and confusion.

If left untreated, bipolar mania can progress to psychosis and make treatment more difficult.

Often, the patient does not experience all the symptoms during depression or mania. The number of symptoms has nothing to do with the severity of depression. some people experience more symptoms and others only a few. The severity of symptoms also varies from person to person and can change over time.
