| Bipolar disorder includes several types, each with unique mood patterns and symptoms. Bipolar I involves full manic episodes and often severe depression. Bipolar II is characterized by hypomanic episodes along with major depressive episodes. Cyclothymic disorder causes long-term fluctuating mood swings that are less extreme than full manic or major depressive episodes. Other subtypes include rapid-cycling bipolar, where mood shifts happen four or more times a year, and mixed features, combining depressive and manic symptoms. Understanding these variations helps clinicians tailor treatment and individuals find more effective therapeutic strategies. |
