Understanding Symptoms, Causes, and Treatment
Bipolar Disorder Treatment at Higher Purpose Recovery
Understanding Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder is a mood disorder marked by extreme emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). These shifts aren’t just mood swings—they can impact your energy, decision-making, relationships, and overall functioning.
At Higher Purpose Recovery, we understand how overwhelming and isolating bipolar disorder can be. Our virtual therapy programs offer compassionate, personalized care to help you find stability, develop healthy routines, and gain tools to navigate life’s ups and downs.
Common Signs and Symptoms
There are different types of bipolar disorder, including Bipolar I, Bipolar II, and Cyclothymia. Common signs across these conditions include:
- Periods of intense energy, euphoria, or irritability (mania/hypomania)
- Impulsive or risky behavior
- Racing thoughts or rapid speech
- Difficulty sleeping or going days with little rest
- Followed by episodes of deep depression, hopelessness, or exhaustion
- Trouble maintaining relationships or work-life stability
Some people experience “mixed episodes,” where symptoms of mania and depression happen at the same time.
Causes and Risk Factors
While there’s no single cause, contributing factors may include:
- Family history of bipolar disorder
- Chemical imbalances in the brain
- Stressful life events or trauma
- Substance abuse or co-occurring disorders
Understanding these influences helps us tailor a treatment plan that addresses your unique needs.
