Bipolar Disorder


There are plenty disorders to the brain. I’m going to explain about the bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder is when you experience off and on stages of madness and depression. There is a second bipolar disorder called bipolar ll. bipolar ll is the same thing as regular bipolar but it has more tame symptoms.
Bipolar is most common between the age groups 18-29. http://www.blackdoginstitute.org.au/docs/FactsandFiguresfactsheet.pdf
Up to 25% of people, who have bipolar disorder; commit suicide while having the disorder. They have found out that the cause of bipolar disorder is a problem in the cellular activities, so in other words the neurotransmitters are not functioning correctly with the receptors. http://www.brainexplorer.org/brain_disorders/focus_bipolar_disorder.shtml
There are treatments for bipolar disorder. First, they actually have a prescribed medicine for it, and sometimes the person who has bipolar disorder will simply just go to therapy.
