Take Control of the Highs and Lows With CPG’s Bipolar Care

Bipolar disorder isn’t just “mood swings,” it’s a cycle of emotional extremes. These shifts can drain your energy, ideas, or make you feel overwhelmed for even small tasks like brushing your teeth. But you’re not alone. Bipolar disorder affects 2.8% of the U.S. population and 46 million people worldwide.
Capital Psychiatry Group’s board-certified providers work with you to understand the intensity behind your manic highs and depressive crashes, impulsive choices, sleepless nights, and burnouts. With expert telepsychiatry, our goal is to stabilize your mood, improve focus so you can regain control of your daily life.

Types of Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar disorder comes in a few forms, with the most common being bipolar I, bipolar II, and cyclothymia.

Bipolar I

is defined by at least one episode of mania, an intense state of elevated mood, energy, or irritability that lasts more than a week. These episodes can disrupt sleep, behavior, and daily life. Most people with bipolar I also go through depressive episodes, though not always.

Bipolar II

involves patterns of depression and hypomania, which is a less severe form of mania. Unlike bipolar I, full manic episodes don’t occur, and people often seek help during the depressive phases, unaware of the hypomanic ones. This can sometimes lead to misdiagnosis.

Cyclothymia

is a rarer, milder version of bipolar disorder, marked by frequent mood swings between low-grade depression and hypomania. Its symptoms are less intense but are still disruptive over time.

Because bipolar II and cyclothymia can be harder to detect, a thorough evaluation by a mental health professional is essential for an accurate diagnosis.

Symptoms of Bipolar Disorder

It’s normal to experience emotional highs and lows from time to time; everyone does. Brief mood changes that last hours, not days or weeks, are often part of everyday life and don’t necessarily signal bipolar disorder. They could be related to other mental health conditions, or may not indicate any condition at all.
Understanding the nature, duration, and intensity of your mood shifts is key to identifying whether professional support is needed. The symptoms of bipolar disorder may include symptoms of mania, depression, and hypomania.
