Bipolar
Conditions We Treat
Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition that involves significant mood swings, featuring episodes of extreme highs—called mania or hypomania—and deep lows known as depression. These shifts in mood can really impact a person’s energy, activity levels, and how clearly they think.
During a manic episode, individuals might feel an unusually elevated or irritable mood, have a boost in self-esteem, need less sleep, experience racing thoughts, and engage in risky behaviors. Hypomanic episodes are similar but tend to be less intense. On the flip side, depressive episodes can bring about feelings of sadness, emptiness, and a loss of interest in things they once enjoyed, along with changes in appetite or sleep, and sometimes even thoughts of self-harm or suicide. It’s important to remember that bipolar disorder can vary in severity and often presents with different patterns of mood episodes.
Treatment for bipolar disorder is unique for each person and depends on the severity of their symptoms and individual needs. We provide personalized recommendations that might include medication, supplements, therapy, or a mix of these options. Our goal is to create a treatment plan that fits you and helps manage your symptoms.
