Bipolar and Related Disorders

Do your emotions feel like an endless rollercoaster, from incredible highs to devastating lows?

Are there unpredictable shifts in your mood, energy, and ability to think clearly?

The symptoms of bipolar disorder can vary significantly in severity and frequency. Some people may go months or years between episodes of mania and depression.

Others may experience the highs and lows at the same time. Bipolar disorder can cause:

  • Hallucination and delusion
  • Reckless behavior and decision making
  • Suicidal ideation
  • Risk-taking
  • Insomnia, or sleeping more than usual
  • Feelings of loss, personal failure, guilt, and helplessness

Almost 10 million Americans live with bipolar disorder, most experiencing their first symptoms in their mid-twenties. Untreated, it can worsen over time, but with a healthy lifestyle, education, psychotherapy, and bipolar disorder medication, this diagnosis is treatable and manageable.

Synchronous Mental Health performs bipolar disorder assessments to classify patients with one of the four types (bipolar 1, bipolar 2, cyclothymia, or “unspecified”). Then, we educate and support individuals to empower them to find the right balance of wellness (exercise, meditation, prayer, etc.), psychotherapy, and medication.

If you’ve struggled with episodes of mild to severe depression and mania in your life and often feel as though your mood and energy are out of control, schedule an initial consultation with Synchronous Mental Health.
