Disorder Detail

Bipolar Disorder

Many bipolar patients run the danger of developing additional psychiatric conditions. They commonly include drug and alcohol misuse, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, and personality disorders. In order to accurately diagnose bipolar illnesses, it is crucial to address substance misuse issues because drug addiction can resemble the symptoms of depression.

Treatment for bipolar disorder often includes psychotherapy or "talk" therapy. You can talk about the emotions, ideas, and actions that make you unhappy during our therapy sessions. Talk therapy can help you understand and, ideally, get past any problems that prevent you from living your life to the fullest potential. Also, it aids in your drug compliance. You may be able to keep an optimistic outlook on life.
