Academic Review of Bipolar Disorder's Relationship with Depression, as well as Triggers and Solutions

It is believed that around four percent of the population in industrialized nations throughout the globe suffers from bipolar disorder (BD). Unfortuitously, a sizeable number of patients either do not obtain a diagnosis at all, receive a diagnosis that is incorrect, or receive therapy that is insufficient for their disease. Adolescence or the early adult years are often the times in a person's life when they first become aware of any symptoms. The disorder is characterized by periods of "mood" that are either manic (periods of hyperactivity associated with high energy and risky behavior) or depressive in nature, with periods of relative normalcy in between. Manic depression is characterized by periods of hyperactivity associated with high energy and risky behavior. The mental illness known as manic depression is characterized by episodes of hyperactivity that are accompanied by high levels of energy and dangerous activities. A person who is experiencing a manic episode may feel much more assured, restless, or irritated than they often do. It's possible that the individual may participate in impulsive activities that put them in potentially dangerous situations, such as abandoning their job, throwing away their money, or initiating a fight with someone else. Because of the decreased need for sleep that occurs during manic episodes, it is far more probable that manic episodes may reoccur in the future. It's possible that the manic phase of bipolar disorder (BD) is less detrimental, if not more so, than the depression phase of the condition. The majority of persons who have bipolar illness will suffer from more periods of depression than manic ones, and depressive episodes will often last for a longer period of time. In addition, the majority of persons who have this illness seek treatment for their depression when they are in the middle of an episode of depression; this is one factor that leads to the common occurrence of incorrect diagnoses of major depressive disorder. According to the intensity of the presenting symptoms, bipolar illness may be divided into two distinct subtypes: bipolar 1 and bipolar 2. It is possible for a person who has been diagnosed with bipolar 1 to have a depressive episode; however, experiencing a depressive episode is not necessary for a diagnosis of bipolar disorder. On the other side, a person who has bipolar 2 will at some point in their life undergo a significant depressive episode
