"Bipolar disorder (previously known as manic depression) is a psychiatric diagnostic category describing a class of mood disorders in which the person experiences clinical depression and/or mania, hypomania, and/or mixed states. The disorder can cause great distress among those afflicted and those living with them. Left untreated, bipolar disorder can be a disabling condition, with a high risk of death through suicide."
"The difference between bipolar disorder and unipolar disorder (also called major depression) is that bipolar disorder involves both elevated and depressive mood states. The duration and intensity of mood states varies widely among people with BiPolar disorder. Fluctuating from one mood state to the next is called "cycling". Mood swings can cause impairment or improved functioning depending on their direction (up or down) and severity (mild to severe). There can be changes in one's energy level, sleep pattern, activity level, social rhythms and cognitive functioning. Some people with Bipolar disorder may have difficulty functioning during these times."

All this week I have listened to the radio about record oil prices. The G8 summit talks seem to have a primary focus on the Gas production crisis with Russia controlling the tap for the whole of Europe. The sooner that we all go backs to our camp fires and caves the better! The price of progress?
ReplyDeleteWarm countries such as the gulf states don't need much heat in any season, thus the ability to export huge amounts of energy. More temperate climes, such as my native Canada, freeze asses off annually. But there's generally a lot of trees, at least where the people are. That's probably why most Canadian homes are timber-framed. If anybody really needs to get somewhere else, I suggest further research into sailways. Wind has gotten things where they're going on the sea, why not on land? And just imagine the excuses for skipping work: "Sorry, I won't be in the office today. It's dead calm."
