Bipolar Disorder
What is Bipolar Disorder?
Bipolar disorder is more than normal mood fluctuations. It involves episodes of unusually elevated mood, increased energy, impulsive behavior, and reduced need for sleep, alternating with periods of depression marked by sadness, fatigue, low motivation, and hopelessness. Without proper treatment, bipolar disorder can disrupt academics, work, relationships, and overall quality of life.
