Managing Bipolar Disorder with NHS Guidelines

Bipolar disorder, previously known as manic depression, causes individuals to experience extreme mood swings between episodes of depression and mania. These episodes can last for several weeks and may not be followed by a "normal" mood. The condition is believed to be caused by a combination of factors including genetic predisposition, chemical imbalances, and life-changing events or stress. To manage the disorder, individuals are often prescribed mood stabilizers or undergo psychological treatment such as talking therapy. Additionally, the National Health Service (NHS) recommends regular exercise and engaging in activities that provide a sense of achievement to help regulate symptoms.
