In psychiatry, bipolar disorder is a "major affective disorder marked by severe mood swings (manic or major depressive episodes) and a tendency to remission and recurrence."[1] Bipolar disorder—which is alternately known as manic-depression—is a mental illness first defined by Emil Kraeplin, which he distinguished from schizophrenia. The exact relationship between bipolar disorder and various other mental illnesses—including schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, and attention deficit hyperactive disorder—is not clear.
Etiology/cause
Twin studies show the heritability of bipolar disorder to be over 80%.[2][3][4]
Childhood bipolar disorder
Bipolar disorder is a controversial diagnosis in children and adolescents[5][6] that is increasing.[7]
The relationship between childhood bipolar disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is uncertain.[6]
A clinical practice guideline, although not based on systematic review of the research, addresses childhood bipolar disorder.[8]
Treatment
Tranquilizing agents, specifically anti-mania agents and antipsychotic agents, may help. These medications may be called mood stabilizers.[9]
