What Is Bipolar Disorder?
Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition that causes episodes of excessively elevated energy, emotions, and impulsivity, known as manic behavior along with opposing episodes of depression. People can experience either a manic episode or depressive episode for hours, days, or even weeks depending on the severity. This condition can be highly disruptive daily functioning, but symptom management is possible with the right help.
Symptoms of Bipolar Disorder
While it is normal for people to experience mood changes throughout the day, those with bipolar disorder experience cycles with no external reason for the changes to their energy, sleep patterns, and activity levels. Individuals struggling with this condition can experience a wide range of symptoms that vary from person to person. Read on to learn how to recognize manic and depressive episodes.
Manic behavior is characterized by:
- Extreme happiness
- Abundance of energy
- Racing thoughts
- Easily distracted
- Hyperactivity
- Risky behavior
- Inflated sense of self-esteem
- Agitation or irritability
- Talkative
- Grandiose thoughts
- Less sleep
Depressive behavior is characterized by:
- Feelings of sadness or irritability
- No appetite or overeating
- Decreased activity level
- Anxiety
- Fatigue
- Too much or too little sleep
- Shame or guilt over deeds done during mania
- Feelings of hopelessness
- Social isolation
- Suicidal ideation
During both depressive and manic episodes people may experience delusions and hallucinations. These are symptoms of psychosis and the delusions or hallucinations tend to match their extreme mood. Itâs important to seek help immediately if you or a loved one begin to experience psychosis.

Treating Bipolar Disorder and Substance Use
We recognize the profound connection between bipolar disorder and substance use, a dual challenge where each condition can intensify the other. Many individuals with bipolar disorder turn to drugs or alcohol as a way to self-medicate, temporarily alleviating symptoms like depression, mania, or anxiety. However, this often leads to a dangerous cycle that worsens both conditions. Our specialized dual diagnosis treatment is designed to break this cycle by addressing mental health and addiction simultaneously, providing the tools needed for true, sustainable healing.
