Living with Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar can be controlled. I know that I get a lot of different things from people when I hear or read about Bipolar disorder. Bipolar is only something that holds you back from your full potential and brings you down if you let it. Symptoms of bipolar disorder for teenagers is a lot different then they are for adults with this disorder. Bipolar affects your mood and sometimes the actions.

Sometimes, a mood episode includes symptoms of both mania and depression. This is called a mixed state. People with bipolar disorder also may be explosive and irritable during a mood episode. Extreme changes in energy, activity, sleep, and behavior go along with these changes in mood.
