Bipolar Disorder is a mental health condition characterized by significant shifts in mood, energy, activity levels, and concentration. People with bipolar disorder experience episodes of mania or hypomania (elevated mood and increased energy) and depression (persistent sadness, low energy, and loss of interest). With proper treatment and support, many individuals can successfully manage their symptoms and lead fulfilling lives.
