Understanding Bipolar Disorder

What is Bipolar Disorder?

Bipolar disorder, previously known as manic-depressive illness, is a mental health condition that causes severe mood swings that include both mania (or hypomania) and depression. These mood swings can affect various aspects of life, including work, relationships, and overall functioning.

Types of Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar I Disorder

This type involves manic episodes lasting at least 7 days or requiring hospitalisation. Depressive episodes last at least two weeks, and individuals may experience severe mood swings.

Bipolar II Disorder

This type is characterised by hypomanic episodes (less severe than manic episodes) and severe depressive episodes, but without the full-blown manic episodes of Bipolar I.

Cyclothymic Disorder (Cyclothymia)

Involves numerous hypomanic episodes and depressive symptoms lasting for at least two years, but without meeting the diagnostic criteria for full-blown manic or depressive episodes.

Symptoms of Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar disorder is marked by drastic changes in mood, energy, activity levels, and the ability to carry out everyday tasks. Symptoms typically fluctuate between two extreme states:

Manic (or Hypomanic) Episode Symptoms

  • Elevated or irritable mood
  • Increased energy or activity levels
  • Racing thoughts or rapid speech
  • Impulsivity or engaging in risky behaviour
  • Decreased need for sleep
  • Poor judgment or irrational decisions

Depressive Episode Symptoms

  • Persistent sadness or feelings of hopelessness
  • Fatigue or loss of energy
  • Loss of interest in activities once enjoyed
  • Sleep disturbances (insomnia or excessive sleep)
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Thoughts of death or suicidal ideation

How We Treat Bipolar Disorder at Nityanand Rehab Centre

At Nityanand Rehab Centre, we offer comprehensive treatment that combines medication management, psychotherapy, and holistic practices to ensure long-term stability for patients with bipolar disorder.

Medication Management

Medication is a cornerstone of bipolar disorder treatment, helping to manage both manic and depressive episodes. Our psychiatrists prescribe a combination of:

  • Mood Stabilisers (e.g., Lithium, Valproate)
  • Antipsychotic Medications (e.g., Olanzapine, Risperidone)
  • Antidepressants (used carefully in combination with mood stabilisers)

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps individuals with bipolar disorder identify and manage negative thought patterns and behavioural triggers that can lead to manic or depressive episodes. We work with patients to develop coping strategies and improve emotional regulation.

Psychoeducation

Understanding the nature of bipolar disorder is key to managing it effectively. We provide psychoeducation for both patients and their families to increase awareness, improve compliance with treatment, and reduce the likelihood of relapse.

Family Therapy

Family plays an essential role in the recovery process. We offer family counselling to ensure that loved ones understand the condition and can provide effective support throughout the patient's recovery journey.

Lifestyle and Wellness Support

  • Regular Routines: Encourage patients to establish a structured daily routine to manage mood swings
  • Exercise and Nutrition: Physical health plays a major role in managing mood disorders
  • Mindfulness Practices: Mindfulness, relaxation techniques, and stress management practices
Holistic Bipolar Treatment

Our Holistic Approach to Bipolar Disorder Recovery

At Nityanand Rehab Centre, we view bipolar disorder recovery as a long-term process that requires consistent care, support, and self-awareness. Our holistic approach focuses on:

  • Balancing medications with therapy to manage mood fluctuations
  • Building emotional resilience through psychosocial support and coping mechanisms
  • Promoting overall wellness with physical activity, healthy eating, and mindfulness practices

Our goal is to help you lead a stable, fulfilling life by providing the tools and support needed to manage symptoms and maintain stability.

FAQs

Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition marked by extreme mood swings, including manic highs and depressive lows.

Treatment includes mood stabilisers, antipsychotic medications, and psychotherapy like CBT. Lifestyle changes and support systems are also significant.

Symptoms include manic episodes with high energy, impulsive behaviour, and depressive episodes with sadness, low energy, and hopelessness.

While the exact cause isn't known, genetics, brain structure, and environmental factors like trauma can play a role.
