Ty and Thanks for watching.
I took invega sustena and invega Trinza for 6 years and for a major part of that time I had to do crystal meth to feel ok. I had a severe tbi 11 years ago. I take clozapine now and I have to drink lots of caffeine and use nicotine to feel ok. I quit smoking cigarettes 5 months ago, hopefully I will never smoke tobacco ever again. I could use your prayers. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder when I was 18. I'm 33 now
I was born again when I was 27. I've been walking with Jesus for over 9 years now.
Good for you yes Jesus came to help the sick god bless u

I was finally diagnosed with bipolar at 42 although I was 15 when I had my first mania. No one looked beyond it to see if their was a cooccurring disorder along with it. I certainly had many signs of CPTSD by that point. No one ever looked past blaming everything on my having bipolar until I went in to therapy 16 years later and realized what had been done to me all those years was abuse and at that time it was still going on. I really got a lot better but after 4 years of therapy the state said I'd been in therapy too long and I surely must be "fixed". Last fall I tried a new one but just didn't click with her. All I do is try to do the work on my own. I have got to move from here nearer a city. Their's nothing in Northern Michigan but sub zero temps and snow.
I can relate, I grew up in Minnesota. Sorry to learn of CPTSD on top of other issues. Life is challenging for most of us. You are getting better 🤗 Congrats for hanging in there. We never can stop learning. 😏
Thanks for watching. Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
Thank you so much for this lecture. I’ve been long looking for a truly in depth, not too dry informative video. Everything the doctor mentions here is very accurate and detailed, with a lot of compassion and attention towards what the symptoms truly entails. Often information only describes the symptoms very superficial, such as mania but not describing the ‘logic’ and emotions that goes with it. Much appreciated.

Hi, I was diagnosed when I turned 24.. I am almost 26 and I never stop learning about bipolar disorder. Thank you for your video it was extremely informative!
You are so welcome. Thanks for watching. Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
Same here!
Really well done, thank you very much. I know I am not the only one here who appreciates the hard work you put into your videos.
Thanks again and I hope you're safe and well!
You’re most welcome. Thank you for watching the video
Thank you for this. 🙏🏽 extremely informative and I’ll probably watch it again.
I’ve experienced depression/anxiety for years and most recently found out some of this may be bipolar now. Also, thank you for mentioning PMDD bc it’s important and it also was a thing for me. I came down to the same conclusion that it affects my mood fluctuations especially around the times of my cycle. So it’s a variety of symptoms but I’m narrowing down now and getting to the bottom of it! 🎉
I appreciate you watching. How have you addressed anxiety and depression in the past? What worked for you?

Very insightful. Many people throw around “bipolar” without really knowing the true meaning. Many of these disorders have overlap so one must be careful when diagnosing. Thank you for a great video.

the ancient Greeks used to consider bipolar disorder as a divine gift from the gods! A divine gift! Wow! That’s WAY different than how we are looked at today. How fascinating. “Mania” and “melancholia” were among the first two diseases ever categorized. Even Socrates and Plato understood that mania was a divine state with various characteristics such as “erotic inspiration” sent from the god of love or “proteptic inspiration” derived from the Muses. They even go on to say that the god Apollo is the source of this divine inspiration!
Send them to a Mental Health Unit & they will change their POV!🥴😝🤷🏾♂️😇
Great video! This channel helps me fill in the gaps after reading the DSM. Question: When people are in a hypomanic or manic episode, do you ever see people who start playing video games for very long periods of time? Or, at weird hours of day/night? Or, would a person in an episode be too restless to sit at a computer for that long?
Thanks for watching.
Also I'm asking all my questions before I watch your video. But that's also how I like it.;)
I have been trying to figure myself out so I have been trying to be aware of my physical and mental state. As you describe everything.. i noticed my body tensed up, my toes curled in, and my hands closed into fists as well.. my breathing started pacing faster.. and then tears came out. I don’t know anymore. But i know how i got here. Probably.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you.
Great job!
Thanks for watching! Wishing you peace, health, and, happiness.
@@DocSnipes Random, but I also made a quick overview video on Bipolar 1 Disorder!
I feel as though I'm in euthymia most of the time I'd also like to say that the characteristics that are listed by the DSM Don't necessarily apply to how it manifests within myself or other individuals to the tea so that's also kind of disorienting or confusing to not only the individual but to me as a future clinician
Great content, delivered by a Pro. Thank you Dr.
Q. How can we tell if someone has bipolar and ADHD? Or wrongly diagnosed with one and not the other?
hypomania and mania do not fully occur for more than 4 consecutive days with ADHD. you might have a night where you get excited about an idea, preform that idea, then get bored and fall asleep.
Bipolar mania is constantly feeling the need to do things or form ideas in your head.
@@dodgdurango6128 thank you 😊 that was an answer worth waiting for. What's the story behind your handle dodgduran?
Some of us have both😢😅
@@KingdomofTara we are still figuring it out with me, but in some adhd and bipolar patients, hypomania may look like a flight of ideas with out any actual plan to preform said ideas.
Wow this was hard to hear, my dad has bipolar. Dad lies so much and I can't tell if he's being genuine or not, he acts dumb but he knows exactly what's going on, he acts deaf but he hears everything 🙄 now that he's old he cant have violent tempa tantrums, he usto waste us as kids, I had alot of anger and knocked him out when I was 16(dickheads forget people grow up) I'd get hidings for trying to stop him BUT grandad always said protect your love ones boy, and still to this day we die trying🤙I still visit dad to see if he's still alive but I don't take my family near him... I feel like bashing him all the time but I still love him and I feel bad for loving him. It's bloody confusing 🤔
Thanks for watching and commenting
Yes,,those conflicting feelings can be torturous, at times. Try not to ruminate about it. Sometimes after we've done all we can do to heal,,and need to let go, we may just have to face that we were just a victim of circumstances. So we're they. And it'll continue until you break the cycle. Bless and godspeed on your healing journey
Also do we have to rule out alcohol usage in order to Make a diagnosis of bipolar disorder? Even though substance disorder overlaps with the three different bipolar disorders? So, what I'm asking is do we have to rule out the alcohol dependents alone isn't causing bipolar type symptoms?
I know many struggle with this; I've read that CBT/CVT (?) is the best. No doubt Dr Snipes will get to this. Myself? I'm just a simple Neurotic! LoL edit: which probably includes small levels of everything; however, I never lash or act out on others, personally.
DBT therapy for certain Type B Issues, is the best, or so I've read.
Can you please make a video for all Anxiety Disorders please🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have a lot of video you might be interested in. Please see this search: th-cam.com/users/DocSnipessearch?query=Anxiety%20Disorder
You videos are so professionally done but I would like to hear a brief summary at the end or at least some concluding statements rather than an abrupt cut-off. Very informative and otherwise well presented.
Most do. Thanks for the watching and the comment. :)
The dsm is really not a tool for diagnostics. Having said that, it's great that you elaborate on the overlapping symptoms of the /dd
Thanks for watching.
Dr. Thomas Insel, formerly the director at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) in the U.S. stated in his personal blog on 29 April 2013:
_The goal of this new manual, as with all previous editions, is to provide a common language for describing psychopathology. While DSM has been described as a “Bible” for the field, it is, at best, a dictionary, creating a set of labels and defining each. The strength of each of the editions of DSM has been “reliability” - each edition has ensured that clinicians use the same terms in the same ways. The weakness is its lack of validity. Unlike our definitions of ischemic heart disease, lymphoma, or AIDS, the DSM diagnoses are based on a consensus about clusters of clinical symptoms, not any objective laboratory measure. In the rest of medicine, this would be equivalent to creating diagnostic systems based on the nature of chest pain or the quality of fever. Indeed, symptom-based diagnosis, once common in other areas of medicine, has been largely replaced in the past half century as we have understood that symptoms alone rarely indicate the best choice of treatment._
My friend you are hitting every nail on the head I was diagnosed with manic depression while I was 19 I'm fixing to be 56 I have been on every medication that they have came out with they keep throwing more and more medication than me as of now I'm not taking any medication and I'm having a really difficult time I have narcissistic parents I have a mother that when my baby died in 1999 she told me God knew I was not ready for that baby that's why he took him in her little snide voice that she uses
I am sorry you went through that. I appreciate you watching the video
How can I get the ppt for these lectures
Dr. Snipes, I caught your self-correction regarding "people who are bilogically female". I wonder what is your professional take on the increase in self-reported gender fluidity and gender non-conformity that we are seeing these days? Thanks!
Ok I'll be 50 this July 17 I really feel bad for my kids now that I'm learning I'm bipolar the manic spending I never noticed until this video I figured I needed these things I'm really messed up I look back at how did others even deal with me esp. my family. As these tears drop I know I can be helped it's all about rewiring Right??
Reach out to the name on my channel 👆🏼fast …

I just want to know how and where to get diagnosed? Cause I’m 50 years old and I’ve been struggling with this my whole life, and I don’t know how to get diagnosed find out what’s going on. I don’t want to kill myself please help thank you
Doctor snipes what aspecific foods increase food for memorizing examples studying you want learn new language for memorizing English vocabulary or words or anything you want learn like the smart people who succeed that you want forget in long term like memorizing like exford dictionary someone is forgetful . someone is concerned about something that he wants to achieve money or education we all busy but someone is facing difficult my be your lost you parents or job. what foods that increase his brains power ? Thank you
What happens if you go your knowledge have no family history of bipolar, have no past trauma, and have never exhibited symptoms of bipolar until you got on anti depressants and had a manic episode? This is the case with me. I’m 19 so I’m still quite young and it may just be my symptoms haven’t shown yet but it’s hard for me to believe I am bipolar when I exhibit next to no signs of bipolar aside from the depression which I have been diagnosed with in the past.
You need to get a second medical opinion, if you question the first diagnosis. A psychiatrist would probably be best.
@@DocSnipes thank you!
I was exactly the same, no past trauma, and fell into a depression around 14 years old. The anti depressants sent me into a manic episode. I didn't have a proper manic episode for another few years, so just keep an eye on yourself. You may just not have had one yet?
What are the components in assessing a bipolar disorder
Thank you for saying you CAN sleep whilst manic. It’s only for 2-hour periods, but I can sleep.
Okay so what you're talking about with bipolar depression, I have been telling my own doctors and I'm not supposed to be taking antidepressants if I've already been diagnosed by a psychiatrist as bipolar disorder because it makes things worse. So when I take a depressant like Prozac I literally cry harder in my life over the small things for no reason.
I am sorry to hear that. It can be frustrating dealing with doctors sometimes.
It can be frustrating dealing with humans . A doctor is just a name for the type of hat a human wears, I'm not referencing a hat, I'm referencing humans. Peace and Love! I thank you for your work Dr. Snipes!@@DocSnipes
She said bipolar and PTSD. I have both plus anxiety disorder and panic disorder.yeah it's hell no matter what
Dr. Snipes why is it that you find cognitive behavioral therapy the most effective? Or do you?
Because much of people's emotional dysregulation is caused by feeling unsafe and powerless as a result of inaccurate cognitions. This ongoing fear causes changes in the HPA-Axis/stress response and subsequent mood, trauma related and "personality" disorders.
😔😔😔 I am diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder II, ADHD, CPTSD, Anxiety Disorder, Severe Depression w Recurrent Episodes, OCD and Primary Ovarian Insufficiency 😔😔😔 fun!
Thanks for watching. Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
I'll be praying for you, Alexa.
So what if you're utilizing not only amphetamines such as dextroamphetamine, and alcohol?
I find myself crying to your videos a lot Why is that?😭😭😭🤪😜🤔
Don’t get it wrong. I’m bipolar and during my manic episodes, im desperate for sleep. im always exhausted and I hate it. so yeah, I do wish I could sleep when im hypomanic. I feel out of control
I am sorry about that and I appreciate you watching the video. Here is a video on sleep improvement: th-cam.com/video/RmuJKdKYVcc/w-d-xo.html
Psychology of the other hand in this is a little 22nd 6th *@36
I have bipolar II so idk if this applies to type I. Lithium (which is a natural mineral and does not have withdrawal symptoms) has been great for my sleep/mania/general stability even at a low dose. Lamictil has been helpful for my depression. I’ve been on both for almost 2 years and feel much more stable/less reactive. I still have cycles triggered by stress or the weather but I’m not as miserable and out of control as I used to be. Antidepressants and antipsychotics fucked me up real bad for years (age 18-22) when I first sought treatment. Often the side /withdrawal effects from these meds leave you worse off than you were to begin with. Inexperienced doctors don’t understand those risks when prescribing heavy duty meds. Lots of intensive and group therapy for my other various diagnoses (CPTSD, ED, ADHD, etc) have been helpful too.
Hi I have serious question in women can Bipolar Disorder be miss diagnosed as ADHD??
I had a roommate who was diagnosed with ADHD but most of her behavior/symptoms fall under BD.
Also, do adhd patients experience hypomania?
Thanks for watching. ADHD patients may experience semantic over-activation.
Also half the time I'm using voice to text and I don't like to use punctuation so please no one mind me
I don't like to use punctuation in this sense only because it is tedious and I do not like tedious things on ADD

I’m surprised there is no mention of akathisia even in this video.
Thanks for watching.
Isn't that more to do with benzodiazapine withdrawal symptoms - like Dr Jordan Peterson got?🤔
@@mkhan9764*ABSTRACT:* Background: Akathisia continues to be a significant challenge in current neurological and psychiatric practice. Prompt and accurate detection is often difficult and there is a lack of consensus concerning the neurobiological basis of akathisia. No definitive treatment has been established for akathisia despite numerous preclinical and clinical studies.] Method: We reviewed antipsychotic-induced akathisia including its clinical presentation, proposed underlying pathophysiology, current and under investigation therapeutic strategies. Conclusion: Despite the initial promise that second generation antipsychotics would be devoid of akathisia effects, this has not been confirmed. Currently, there are limited therapeutic options for the clinical practice and the evidence supporting the most widely used treatments (beta blockers, anticholinergic drugs) is still absent or inconsistent.

@@mkhan9764 *ABSTRACT:* Dopamine-receptor blocking agent-associated akathisia (DRBA-A) is an adverse effect that can significantly limit the use of these important medications for the treatment of a variety of psychiatric diseases, yet there is no unifying theory regarding its pathophysiology. This knowledge gap limits clinicians’ ability to effectively manage DRBA-A and mitigate negative outcomes in an already vulnerable patient population. Based on a review of the current literature on the subject, it is hypothesized that dopaminergic and noradrenergic signaling is perturbed in DRBA-A. Accordingly, it is proposed that the optimal agent to manage this extrapyramidal symptom should increase dopamine signaling in the affected areas of the brain and counteract compensatory noradrenergic signaling via antagonism of adrenergic or serotonergic receptors.

@@averat84 I agree akathisia is serious. It is just that I thought it's not likely to be featured on a vid about bipolar disorder.🤷🏾♂️🤔
Good God. She sounds like so many of my psychiatrists in the 23 years I have been diagnosed bipolar depressive. ... all science and no actual experience.
She's so excited to have discovered her PhD theory. This is what I have said for all of these years, "if you have no actual experience then you are like a priest who offered marriage counseling." Everything that you "know" is from a book.
Sadly you actually "know" nothing until you have lived in our heads
Ok? So then teach us! Do a video! How do you expect someone to know what’s in your head?
