Bipolar disorder is a mental illness characterized by extreme mood swings that include emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). Manic episodes may involve heightened energy, impulsivity, and euphoria, while depressive episodes manifest as sadness, lethargy, and loss of interest. These shifts can disrupt daily life, relationships, and work. Treatment typically involves medication, therapy, and lifestyle adjustments. With proper management, individuals with bipolar disorder can lead fulfilling lives and maintain stability.Luck and Your Mental Health
