Understanding Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar disorder involves shifts in mood, energy, and activity levels that can feel unpredictable and overwhelming. You might experience periods of depression, extreme low moods, or periods of high energy, irritability, or racing thoughts. Living with bipolar disorder can make work, relationships, and daily life challenging but support and treatment can make a significant difference.

You don’t have to face it alone. Therapy can help you better understand your moods, manage symptoms, and build a life that feels stable and fulfilling.
