Overview
History and symptoms
Bipolar disorder is a cyclic illness where people periodically exhibit elevated (Manic) and depressive episodes. Most people will experience a number of episodes, averaging 0.4 to 0.7 a year with each lasting 3-6 months.[1] Late adolescence and early adulthood are peak years for the onset of the illness.[2][3] These are critical periods in a young adult's social and vocational development, and they can be severely disrupted by disease onset.
