Bipolar Disorder
Book AppointmentBipolar disorder is a mental health condition that causes extreme changes in mood, ranging from emotional highs (mania or hypomania) to lows (depression). These mood episodes can affect your thoughts, sleep, energy levels, and behaviour.
Bipolar disorder usually begins in young adulthood, at around age 21, but it can occur at other ages and affects both men and women.
With appropriate treatment and ongoing support, many people with bipolar disorder can successfully manage their symptoms.
