Residential Treatment Center for Bipolar Disorder in Georgia
What Is Bipolar Disorder?
Bipolar disorder affects a person’s mood, energy levels, and ability to think clearly. It is characterized by an individual oscillating between high highs and low lows. This mood disorder can be challenging to diagnose accurately as a person might exhibit the same symptoms as depression or go extended periods without symptoms.
Signs of bipolar disorder include:
- Manic episodes
- Hypomania
- Increased irritability
- Restlessness
- Rapid speech or racing thoughts
- Increased impulsivity
- Unpredictable behaviors and impaired judgment
- Suicidal thoughts
- Changes in sleep
- Difficulty concentrating
- Feelings of helplessness and low self-worth
- Severe bipolar episodes might include delusions or other psychotic symptoms
There are four types of bipolar disorder classifications: Bipolar 1 disorder, bipolar II disorder, cyclothymic disorder, and unspecified bipolar disorder. A qualified medical professional will have a conversation with you about the severity, duration, and nature of your symptoms to provide a diagnosis. Many people begin to experience symptoms of bipolar around 25 years old, however it has been found to occur in teens as well—and this condition affects men and women equally.
