Bipolar Disorders are directly linked to mood swings.

A bipolar disorder is a common medical condition in which a person experiences both low and high mood states. This type of condition is equally found in men and women.

Causes of bipolar disorder:

The main cause of a bipolar disorder is the imbalance in the level of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine in the brain. Stressful life events can trigger the condition.

Symptoms of bipolar disorder:

  • Low and high mood swings
  • Lack of interest in daily activities
  • Avoidance of people and situations
  • Letharginess
  • Difficulty in concentration
  • Changes in sleep and appetite
  • Lack of confidence
  • Reduced self-esteem
Diagnosis:

Diagnosis should be done carefully exploring the presence of both depressive and manic states.

Treatment:

Pharmacotherapy is beneficial in stabilizing the mood states and minimizing the levels of irritability and excitability. In addition, restoring sleep is crucial. Besides, psychotherapy is helpful for the affected person and the family.
