Bipolar Disorder

What is Bipolar Disorder?

Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition that causes unusual shifts in mood, energy, and activity levels — ranging from emotional highs (mania or hypomania) to lows (depression). These mood changes can affect relationships, decision-making, and daily functioning. Episodes may last days, weeks, or even months, and the intensity can vary from person to person.
Bipolar disorder is not simply “mood swings”; it’s a medical condition that requires understanding and ongoing support. With proper treatment, individuals can maintain stability, manage symptoms, and live fulfilling, productive lives. At Wellness Whisper Psychiatry, we focus on helping you find balance, consistency, and hope through personalized care.

Symptoms of Bipolar Disorder?

Symptoms differ based on whether an individual is experiencing a manic, hypomanic, or depressive episode.

Elevated mood, increased energy, rapid speech, decreased need for sleep, impulsive behavior, or racing thoughts.

Low mood, fatigue, feelings of hopelessness, loss of interest, or changes in appetite and sleep.

Experiencing symptoms of both mania and depression at the same time, which can feel confusing and exhausting.
