Mania and depression are the opposing phases in bipolar disorder.
Mani (the "high" of bipolar disorder): A person in the manic phase may feel indestructible, full of energy and ready for anything. Other times, it can become irritable and ready to talk to someone trying to get in your way.
Plans unrealistic, excessive spending, an increase in sexual matters, or other irresponsible behavior, such as wild driving, also may occur.
Less sleep and food than normally required.
The person with mania can stay up all night, but maybe not much has been achieved because he or she was easily distracted.
The person in the manic phase can talk really fast and jump from topic to topic. They often speak at the pressure mania: The person who speaks very quickly, as if his mouth can not keep pace with rapid thoughts. The person may be unable to respond to social cues to stop talking.
Increased activity and gesture (the rhythm, tapping the feet) can be seen.
Poor anger control, and irritability can be particularly distressing for friends and relatives.
Self-esteem may have been exaggerated. A person may be exaggerated self-confidence.
Economic activities and decision-making is often done in haste and without careful consideration, this is a bad rating may be due to inappropriate optimism.
Clothing choices can be changed, and the person in a manic phase may begin to use brighter, more flamboyant clothes.
They may have grandiose delusions (false beliefs) of magnitude (size).
In severe cases, delusions (fixed false beliefs) and hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that are not real) can be seen.
Hypomania refers to a milder form of mania. Persons to whom this disorder has many of the same characteristics as those with a history of mania, with no negative impact on daily activities. In fact, they may seem like a lot of energy and can be very profitable, which need less rest than the other.
These behaviors, which can be very distressing, usually prompt a family member to become aware and try to get to the person.
Most people who are going through a manic phase of bipolar disorder to deny that something is wrong and refuse to see the doctor.
Depression (the "bottom" of bipolar disorder): Although mania is said to alternate with depression, most people have more manic depressive episodes themselves.
Sadness and crying spells are common, as are too disturbing and guilt.
People who are depressed do not care enough to wash or comb her hair, changing clothes, or even out of bed in the morning.
They may sleep too much (excessive sleepiness) or have trouble sleeping (insomnia). Loss of energy can lead to changes in sleep patterns.
Many of these people have no interest in food or have no appetite and lose weight. However, others overeat.
People with depression have trouble thinking, you may forget to do important things like paying bills, as they sit down and have difficulty concentrating on tasks.
They withdraw from friends and suffer social interactions.
Interests and activities used to be a joy for all of a sudden no interest in people who are depressed.
Depression brings feelings of hopelessness, helplessness, pessimism, and worthlessness.
Some people may develop chronic pain or other physical complaints that do not really have any physical cause.
People who are depressed can not see the point of living longer and can actually think of ways to kill.
Bipolar disorder untreated is a 15% risk of death by suicide.
The risk of suicide attempts is almost 10 times higher in patients with manic-depressive in the general population.
Some people with bipolar disorder cycle between the two extremes of the range every few months or weeks. Other patients with bipolar disorder may cycle several times during the same day. This is called rapid cycling.
Substance abuse is common in people with bipolar disorder. The use of drugs or alcohol in excess can trigger or worsen symptoms. Otherwise, some people may use drugs and alcohol in an attempt to treat their symptoms. Other conditions that can co-occur with BD include conduct disorders, eating disorders, attention disorders, thyroid disorders, migraine and anxiety.
