Animation Description: Bipolar Disorder encompasses a wide spectrum of symptoms and is classified according to the types of mood episodes exhibited, including: manic, hypomanic, major depressive and mixed episodes.
Bipolar I disorder involves a manic or mixed episode in contrast to Bipolar II disorder, which involves at least one major depressive episode and at least one hypomanic episode, but no full manic or mixed episodes.
Bipolar Disorder should be differentiated from Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), which is diagnosed when a patient experiences one or more major depressive episodes without any lifetime episodes of hypomania or mania.
Depicted here is a life chart (or mood chart), which follows the patient's lifetime history of mood episodes. This permits the identification of mood episodes that are the most prevalent and important to prevent.
In this patient, as with many patients with bipolar disorder, depressive episodes become the more prominent aspect of the illness as the person ages.
Several morphometric differences have been observed in the brains of Bipolar Disorder patients relative to healthy subjects.
White matter hyperintensities and reduction in grey matter volume, identified with MRI, have been described in patients with Bipolar Disorder.
Increased ventricular size and decreased frontal cortical area volumes may also be observed in Bipolar Disorder patients.
The pathophysiology of Bipolar Disorder encompasses environmental, behavioural, neuronal, cellular, and molecular levels.
At the molecular level, aberrant signaling cascades alter synaptic plasticity. Strong evidence supporting the importance of second messenger signaling has come from studying the targets of mood stabilizing drugs such as lithium.
GSK-3 and IP3 signaling cascades are known to mediate axonogenesis, synaptogenesis, neuronal growth and cone spreading. Other downstream effects may also be involved.
The heritability of bipolar disorder is around 80%. Monozygotic twins are reported to have a higher incidence of developing Bipolar Disorder, approximately 40%, whereas the incidence is only 10% in dizygotic twins.
Although the process of developing bipolar disorder likely arises from complex interactions between genes and environmental factors, the specific genes that contribute to this risk are not known with certainty. Variations of several genes have been identified as potential contributors to the pathophysiology of bipolar disorder.
Among the identified genes are those associated with serotonin signaling (SLC6A4, TPH2), dopamine signaling (SLC6A3, DRD4), glutamate transmission (DAOA, DTNBP1), and cell maintenance and growth (NRG1, BDNF, DISC1).
The most significant environmental triggers of mood episodes among patients with bipolar disorder include use of drugs with mood-altering properties, changes in circadian rhythm, and life stressors.
Successful management of bipolar disorder requires particular attention to minimizing the effects of these influences.

They’re calling bipolar disorder “BPD” in this video and I just want other viewers to know that the use of “BPD” is actually used to refer to borderline personality disorder and not bipolar disorder. Don’t get confused!!
Yeah I was thinking that but on Google too some sites mention it as BPD
After years of sadness, cutting, and suicidal thoughts and actions I got diagnosed with this along w 3 other mental illnesses... on the outside, and to people I'm a really nice shy person.. even with friends I'm always nice and happy and humble... but in the inside it's so much pain sometimes unbearable... ik I'll have to live with this forever, but the thought of that really scares me.. it's almost like thinking how long can I take it before I can no longer...I'm only 19... I'm fighting this and I hope to keep winning!
Dont give up,,stay strong..xoxo
It feels like you have too put on a mask and be an actor of your own life too show to the outside world. It's so draining
King Reyes I am a mother of 2 and I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder as a teenager. I don’t take medicine because I do not want to have long term issues if I can’t continue buying at some point in life. I battle with this day and night :( having kids makes it hard
stay strong brotha
King Reyes I am 16 and suffering from the same shit, actually being classified as severe.. Hope it will get easier for you, even though it's uncommon to get better
BPD = Borderline personality disorder not bipolar disorder
I think I'm the only one who has this disorder, by reading comments I get to know , I have lot of friends here.... welcome family 😂😂😍
You can have mixed episodes with Bipolar II, as long as you dont reach full blown mania you classify as type II
I didn't understand a word of that
Tony Clive I don't understand a word of it either and I have bipolar 2 with mania
Cmon man im 11 and i understand all of it
@@iconicbuilds5875 Lol
It's not made for the general population.
I'm at work trying to listen to this to gain knowledge and TRY to stay awake! I read THIS and now IM AWAKE because I can't stop laughing!!! Not to mention the fact that I TOTALLY AGREE! :-)
I hate being bipolar it's awesome.
gotta love that sneaky kanye
Thanks Kanye, very cool!
Manic time I enjoy
Bipolar disorder is nothing to joke about
80 per cent heritability. Now that's depressing.
Ikr? 😕
The worst for me was having a manic episode due to life stressors. And then during that time I tried to calm myself down with weed. Well guess what their blaming it on guys.
I'm afraid that's what I have resorted too
It helps me x
Bipolar disorder and BPD (Borderline Personality disorder) are two very differnt disorders. Please do not confuse them
I'm suffering
my brother is mbipolar and he is finding this a true enlighting educational valuable content worth sharing
Can I share something with you since your brother has bipolar? Ever thought about changing the diet? I had a friend of mine who had bipolar disorder. But his bipolar disorder was caused by Dairy and Gluten. When he stopped both, he became a lot better. For example, check youtube video "The Milk Protein Casein and Bipolar Disorder" by Dr. David J. Clark. There is also a youtube video on how epilepsy was cured after dairy was eliminated.
Wow, that was excellent!
Thank you... very informative and helpful video!!
Very Educational..
Can Bipolar Disorder also mean triggering a manic episode in the form of anger? That`s when I feel it. or medicine change? When I remain devoid of emotion, or negative ones, I remain stable, or down. Mostly when I`m doing drugs (mostly prescribed) or not my mood goes wild and caused long term problems.
just went through the harshest bipolar episode i had yet. i need to figure my shit out lol
I just have one question, women in my family ave a long history of thyroid disease. Can that be an indicator or preditor for BPD?
Wow,,now I completely understand what's going on in my brain,,Thanks for sharing that I kinda felt like that was it,,but glad I got to hear it from the horse's mouth........
As clear as mud now...lol
I was reading “All The Bright Places”
Understanding Bipolar Disorder
Unless you have it, you will never understand it
All the science and flowcharts in the world will not change this
Excellent! Very educational
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Misdiagnosed bipolar am really suffering with borderline personality is a common misdiagnosis.
So nice 👍
Discriminatin/stigmatization is another fact in our lifes. Not just another life stressor. It can cause unemployement, school drop out etc.
Well...I guess it passed onto me when my mother had to go through a lot in her younger years during the 80’s till I was born then I had to also go through a lot in my younger years.. like I could explain it all, what happened and everything when I was young but, it’s better that the therapists and health councillors that I talked to know 😁unless you’d want to..
So can I get an MRI and it will tell me if I have it , cause I had a dirty rotten psychotic depression when I was 22 and that was 1996 and they gave me an MRI cause I thought I had a tumor or something and it came out normal but would they have tested for bipolar cause im quite sure I am now . I was diagnosed with ADHD at one time as well
very nice video. Very informative. But some of us are looking for tools rather than facts. Too bad there ain't tutorials for this
The mindfulness book "30 Days to Reduce Depression" by Harper Daniels is a good resource.
I have bipolar disorder
I know I have bipolar bc my biological mom and my biological grandmother has it to and I have depression I believe bc i just feel useless sometimes bc I get anxiety idk why I have a nice life Accept at school
Ok but you could just have depression and anxiety. Out of my family only my father and I seem to have it, whereas the rest of my family have anxiety trauma and depression. My child only has a 10 percent chance of being bipolar. So your relatives wouldn’t be a reason to “know” anything.
Coffee true. Why getting a clinical diagnosis from an actual therapist/psychiatrist is so important too because medications prescribed for BD won’t help to treat depression, and vice versa.
How do you deal with someone that is bipolar
I’m 14 and my dad has it😞😞
Damn it.
Same
Yuup
My mother was diognosed with bipolar 18# years ago when i was born
How do you know of these changes in the brain? MRI?
These things we've found by doing large studies, sadly we still can't use these notions for individual diagnosis.
Who else is here because their doctor doesn’t know how to explain shit ☠️☠️
3:17 and DTF
I'm curious if there is a connection between Bipolar disorder and previous drug addiction? From my experience with friends and family that had a previous stint with drug addiction nearly all that beat the addiction began exhibiting bipolar symptoms.
I think it is possible. But many of bipolar symptoms are actually caused by food.
I had a friend of mine who had bipolar disorder. But his bipolar disorder was caused by Dairy and Gluten. When he stopped both, he became a lot better. For example, check youtube video "The Milk Protein Casein and Bipolar Disorder" by Dr. David J. Clark. There is also a youtube video on how epilepsy was cured after dairy was eliminated.
Tabor 7 that is not how it’s works people are born with bipolar it’s not a disease you can’t catch it .unless you have bp I suggest you do more research
Lesley Green YOU are the one who has no clue and you putting this person down for saying his opinion is close minded as hell. I can’t function eating a normal diet. I had severe mood swings and bi polar and when I cut out all junk and bad foods and went on a natural diet it was sorted by 90%. YOU educate YOURSELF.
@@lesleygreen8127 waz
Is low mania bipolar possible. Without maina I get down or normal
Bipolar 2 means you have had a hypomanic episode and no manic episodes. Hypomania is a less severe form of mania so I guess you could class hypomania as low mania of you wanted
Without mania it is usually major depressive disorder. But everyone is different, talk to your doctor about it
Is that a phospholipid bilayer I see?
Yes.
Mechanisms in Medicine Thank you.
Soooooo.....
Whats it like to not have this disorder?
Do you always need meds to treat it or therapy or both for the rest of your life
@@lesleygreen8127 I agree
Medication is the cornerstone of BPD treatment, find help before your brain experience changes that are harder to control
Am I the only one here after Steve Cash said he had bipolar disorder in depression
I have SAD, BIpolar I and ADD. My life I like walking on a bed of roses 🌹.
Not!
Are you bipolar
People with klinfelter syndrome (xxy )may develop Bipolar disorder..my self a victim
it must suck to have Bipolar
Endernani 8 mania feels good from what I hear
It foes
XIV Words it feels good in the moment bc it’s like you’re on a high but I also know from what I’ve read and seen there are times where you can’t get your thoughts together and everything in jumbled up in your mind. that can’t be pleasant. and then there’s after the mania where the guilt and embarrassment from things you never would have done comes in.
@@xivwords5448 me personally, mania is worse than depressive. both are total nightmares. it effects people differently. however I think that most or all bd's can say mania sucks too. high highs and lowlows. it might depend on the person however.
XIV Words I really hope that’s sarcasm because it’s a living hell
Steve😭
Also you have to get sober before you know it’s being high or mania
untrue...
No, i know the difference.
Welp you sure r/whoosh-ed me there
No
Yes I agree Depression and Bipolar Disorder both are very bad as I have personally seen this when my brother faced it. #RicckyKa helped us a lot and it was good motivation from him. I think everyone who is suffering from any Mental Disorder should at least watch his #RicckyKa video on Depression. It helped us and it should also help you.
My mother is bio polar
Weed works for me, try weed
If your just depressed you don’t got this
Over it
I study psychology...i understood quite a few of these terms. enough to know it was a bunch of random facts thrown at you in no specific order. Not very useful in the long run
Ashleigh from a biology aspect I found it pretty helpful
These facts are the foundation for research in medicine, you find no use because you're not a biomedical researcher.
Anyone here after Selena ???
Si
Who has bipolar disorder plz comment , I'm one of the victim
