Bipolar Illness

Bipolar disorder is also known as manic-depressive illness. It is a brain disorder that causes unusual shifts in a person's mood, energy, and ability to function. Unlike the normal ups and downs that everyone goes through, the symptoms of bipolar disorder are severe and significantly impact the suffer's family, personal and professional relationships. With medication and therapy bipolar disorder can be treated.
