Bipolar Affective Disorder

Bipolar Affective Disorder

TUTORQUESTION:	Many people who suffer from Bipolar Affective Disorder do not seek help when they are in the manic phase of the disorder since they feel euphoric and do not feel ill It is however during this phase that help should be sought, since further progression of the symptoms can be prevented. Discuss this notion in the context of the features of the disorder, describing both the manic and depressive phases, their symptoms and possible treatments.

Bipolar Affective Disorder, formerly known as manic-depression is one of the most commonly diagnosed condition in relation to other illness categorised as mood disorders.  Distinct from other disorders, which characteristically focus on a specific type of behaviour or mood, bipolar disorder cycles from episodes that include depression, normal function, hypomanic and manic phases. The manic episodes of this disorder respond more readily and effectively to treatment. Yet for those afflicted it is a period during which they are least likely to seek treatment, as while enjoying such a sense of well being or even euphoria they either fail to recognise or refuse to acknowledge their behaviour is abnormal. This situation can then become life threatening as these people, with little regard for personal safety
