Bipolar disorder

Bipolar disorder — or as it’s sometimes known, manic depression — is a lifelong condition. It’s an illness that causes shifts in a person's mood, energy and ability to function.

Symptoms of bipolar disorder include dramatic mood swings — from overly high to sad and hopeless and then back again, often with periods of normal mood in between.

Severe changes in energy and behaviour go along with these changes in mood. The highs are called episodes of mania and the lows are called episodes of depression.
