Learn More About Bipolar Disorders:
Formally referred to as manic depressive illness or manic depression, bipolar disorder is characterized by unusual shifts in, not only mood, but also energy levels, concentration, and ability to perform daily tasks.

These abrupt shifts in mood, sometimes called episodes, can impact decision-making and relationships.
