Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar disorder is a mental condition characterized by sharp mood swings from extremely elevated (mania) to deeply depressed (depression), which can occur without any apparent external cause. These mood fluctuations are often accompanied by significant changes in energy, activity, sleep, and behavior.

For example, during a manic episode, an individual may feel super energetic, need minimal sleep, and exhibit impulsive behavior such as thoughtless spending or risky decisions. During a depressive period, the same individual may experience deep sadness, loss of interest in usual activities, and severe fatigue.

Please note when answering the test questions that symptoms must last more than 2 days! Everyone experiences periods of high activity, but with bipolar disorder, the period is long, and the activity is extremely high. If your behavior differed from the norm only briefly, answer 'no'.

During the manic phase of bipolar disorder, individuals may experience unusually high levels of energy, euphoria, or irritability. This state significantly differs from their usual behavior, potentially causing misunderstandings and even conflicts with others.
