Bipolar disorder used to be known as manic depression. It's a serious illness, one that can lead to risky behavior, damaged relationships and careers, even suicidal tendencies -- if it's not treated.
Bipolar disorder is characterized by extreme changes in mood (poles) -- from mania to depression. Between these mood swings, a person with Bipolar disorder may experience normal moods.

My Mom and my little Brother are both bipolar and have been diagnosed by a physciatrist. Bipolar means the persons moods swing from way up to way down on a regular basis. When they are way up, they tend to be very talkative, over spend and do things they wouldn't normally do. Then they swing to way down and deeply depressed where they can't function. With medications it can be controlled. It is very hard to grow up with a bipolar parent bel;ieve me. You never knew which personality would meet you at the door. If you feel this describes you get some help asap. It will make your life much more manageable.
