As you may know, bipolar is a serious mental disorder that exhibits itself as serious emotional ups and downs, or mood swings. Bipolar sufferers can have hallucinations and psychosis episodes, though not all bipolar persons experience these. Bipolar disorder was formerly known as manic depression. People who suffer from this disorder can have abnormally happy ups ("highs") and extreme depressive down days ("lows"). They can also have mixed-state episodes, where they experience both depression and mania or hypomania at the same time. There are different types of bipolar disorder, such as bipolar I and bipolar II. Bipolar disorder can also be classified by terms such as rapid-cycling or seasonal . Seasonal bipolar disorder often makes someone act manic in the spring and then fall into a depression in the fall. Some people with bipolar disorder can also be classified as having seasonal affective disorder (SAD) due to the changes in the sunlight and seasons that interfere with their brain biology and circadian rhythms (sleep cycles).
