"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."

ReplyDeleteMutable, yes, but inextricably linked.
Also perhaps in poetry:
we are tandem him and i
the duality of pig and sty, of earth and sky
of shit and fly
we cut our teeth on the same shoe leather
we've swallowed our legs to the knees
yet we do as we please
we're not just a change in the weather
we're the storm and the calm forever
when he reigns i pour the tribulations
inexplicably linked, his cologne is my stink
i conceive what he thinks, his riddle my sphinx
That should read "performance".
