Manic Depression Online Therapy Can Help You Manage Symptoms of Manic Depression

Bipolar mania and depression occur frequently in the lives of millions of people every day, yet the symptoms of this mental health condition are seldom detected early enough to help someone get the treatment they need. Untreated, a manic episode can quickly grow from a sporadic occurrence to a severe episode that can be life threatening. Bipolar mania and depression, when left untreated, will result in the bipolar disorder that is known as Bipolar I or II. And, if it goes untreated, the consequences could be worse.

Bipolar mania is characterized by an intense emotional roller coaster ride. The mania roller coaster ride typically starts with euphoric feelings which rapidly fade as the person begins to feel overwhelmed by negative thoughts and symptoms. Soon, the mania episode will fade and be followed by depressive feelings and symptoms. In order for a bipolar-disorder to be properly diagnosed, the symptoms must all be present for at least two weeks, along with specific physical challenges such as restlessness, rapid pulse, restlessness, irritability, insomnia, and muscle tension. This means that a proper diagnosis can only be made in the emergency room, where doctors have an intimate view of the physical body.

Bipolar mania and depression both share many symptoms, but they are two different disorders with very different causes, effects, and course of treatment. In order for you to have a proper treatment for your bipolar disorder, you need to know what is it, how does it affect you, and what are the most common treatments for bipolar-disorder. Bipolar mania is the clinical term for bipolar disorder, and there are two main forms of this mental health disorder. They are classified as acute and chronic, and each share some symptoms, but each is different from the other.

Manic depression or bipolar depression occurs in approximately ten percent of all people who are diagnosed with Bipolar I or II. It is a short-term condition marked by periods of emotional highs (mania) and lows (depression). This disorder can last for months or years, and is not a long-term illness. There are no known reasons that manic episodes occur or why some people experience them more often than others. Researchers have identified some genetic and biological factors that may be involved in the development of manic depression.

Bipolar type II disorder is characterized by periods of emotional lows (mania) alternating with periods of elevated moods (depression). This condition is associated with greater risk for suicide, substance abuse, and schizophrenia. There is not yet evidence to suggest a link between manic depression and conductive substance abuse.

Researchers have found that mood fluctuations and cycles may occur in people with Bipolar Disorder but are less consistent than those with Bipolar I or II. The manic episodes tend to be more severe and the depression episodes tend to be less severe. When not treated, these mood swings and cycles can result in dangerous psychotic behavior. Treatment is based on identifying the triggers for the mania and treating the depression states simultaneously.

Cognitive behavioral therapy is an effective way to treat manic depression. It is also an important part of treatment for Bipolar Disorder. During CBT, a licensed therapist helps the client to work through their thoughts and feelings in an attempt to control their moods and prevent occurrences of mania. The client will then be taught to recognize when they are behaving inappropriately and how to stop. The intention is for the client to learn healthier behaviors associated with mania and depression.

This type of online therapy can help you understand how to manage the symptoms of manic depression. You will discover coping mechanisms that will help you through your mania and into each of the other states of depression. Online therapists are well trained to offer support and information to clients and make them feel comfortable discussing the issues. Many people who suffer from this condition fear talking about it and using therapy options. This is why it is so important to use an experienced manic depression online therapist who has experience helping people like you.
