#bipolar #bipolardisorder #bipolardisorderawareness #bipolarawareness

❓ What is Bipolar Disorder or "Manic Depression?"
❓ What are the signs & symptoms of Bipolar Disorder?
❓ What are the ways Bipolar Disorder is treated?

⚠️ In this YouTube short from #Polarwarriors, I'm going to do my best to answer these questions.

▶️ Bipolar Disorder isn't anything new... It's actually an ANCIENT Mental Health condition. It's "cyclic," meaning the major symptoms come and go in cycles. Individuals with Bipolar Disorder experience emotional highs called "manic" or "hypomanic" episodes, and extreme lows where they are depressed. The cause of Bipolar is not fully understood, but it's believed to involve Genetic, biological, and environmental factors.

👉A FEW SIGNS OF MANIA:
❗️Excessively energetic
❗️Racing thoughts
❗️Talking faster / pressured speech
❗️Risky behavior
❗️Sleep disruptions

👉A FEW SIGNS OF DEPRESSION:
❗️Feelings of sadness
❗️Feeling hopeless
❗️Losing interest in activities
❗️Isolating

👉TYPES OF BIPOLAR DISORDER:
1️⃣ Type 1 Bipolar Disorder
2️⃣ Type 2 Bipolar Disorder
3️⃣ Cyclothymia

🙌 BIPOLAR TREATMENT: (Comprehensive Approach)
➕ Medications
➕ Therapy
➕ Lifestyle changes
➕ Cultivating self-awareness

👋 I personally live with TYPE 1 #bipolar disorder - with rapid cycling, and psychotic features. My videos aren't just for the millions of "Polar Warriors" out there who live with #bipolardisorder... They are also for the families, spouses, children, friends, and anyone else trying to understand more about the illness. Through the support, encouragement, education, and tools found in these videos, I hope you find yourself on a better path to mental wellness.

I am Bipolar 1, and I have finally found the right blend of med (Lithium), therapy (a psychologist and psychiatrist team that work so well with me), self treatment in where when I recognise an episode (I tend to mania) I work to combat it with coping mechanisms and a very supportive partner. It has its moments, but this blend has made my Bipolar so much more manageable.

[WeTheLiving]

The beginning with the pyramid should be a show called Ancient Anxieties

The general public is still in the dark about Mental Health/-Illness. Since there’s such
an epidemic of it, it seems right to be both
teaching/learning at all levels of education
+ self study.
Some conditions are preventable, some are
curable or improve-able or manageable. No
matter what, love’s always the right medicine.

[colleenbennett]

Very informative. It's just not easy to 'widen' this in a matter of a few minutes. Most people experience this, doesn't always mean they have bipolar. In today's times, I wonder who suffers from without diagnosis

[tauiraclay]

Very interesting, pin points everything I never heard growing feared being called loony, mental case, weird....another thing always said to me, I was cursed. Thank you Rob for speaking as you do.

[ToThoseWhoVanished]

60secs for some 60 yrs unable to decode it!! Out of my feed🙄🙄

[truenorth]

Could you discuss Bipolar with someone else like you? That would be helpful.

[Sven-jxuv]

😅 Your videos are excellent, and very insightful, they have helped me alot. Please don't do this format in shorts. You sound like a TV presenter or a pharmaceutical AD, you even have the super fake background.

What I prefer from your videos is when you are authentic, real, and speaking truth.

Do Short cuts of your older videos like other creators, sound bites. You have helped so many people, please don't do it this way.
