Understanding this concern
Bipolar disorder involves changes in mood, energy and activity that are more marked than ordinary ups and downs. Diagnosis requires a qualified assessment over time; treatment often combines medication with psychotherapy and routines that support stability.

What you might notice
- Elevated or irritable episodesUnusually high energy, racing thoughts or increased activity can occur.
- Sleep changesA reduced need for sleep during an elevated episode differs from ordinary insomnia.
- Depressive episodesLow mood, loss of interest or reduced energy may also occur.

Common questions
Can a therapist diagnose bipolar disorder from one session?
Usually not. A qualified clinician considers the pattern of episodes, history and other possible causes.
Can therapy replace medication for bipolar disorder?
Therapy can be an important part of care, but medication is commonly central. Do not stop prescribed treatment without speaking to your prescriber.
When does a mood episode need urgent help?
Seek urgent medical help for suicidal thoughts, psychosis, or behaviour that puts you or others in danger. A therapist can help you plan early warning signs with your medical team.
