"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."

As my father used to respond to the searching question of, "Why?".
ReplyDelete"Why did the fly, fly into my eye?"
I don't understand the point of the post, or the meaning, or why should we see the highlighted text below, can you make your point clear?
ReplyDeleteDon't ever think that I can't understand you because I'm not bipolar too, I am also one of... us! ;)
@skorpialogia - Sorry this post was so cryptic, it was probably meaningless to all but a few long time followers of this blog.
ReplyDeleteMy whole life I have had this weird association with the letter Y. Starting with a Y shaped piece of driftwood that was on the psychiatrists table in the hospital where I had shock treatment. Dowsing rods, The South African Flag, the ultimate philosophical Question "Why", the Pythagorean Letter, Yin and Yang (and also YabYum).
So I'm always on the lookout for references to "Y" and when I stumbled across this book claiming that at the crucifixion the Y in the words on the plaque at the top of the cross was supremely significant, I couldn't help being mesmerized. (even tho I'm not Christian per se)
