Dealing with manic depression
October 30th, 2008 by admin
Many of us suffer from mood swings, when we have days when everything seems right and days when we seem to “have got out of bed on the wrong side”, and everything appears bleak and dark. When this happens frequently it may mean that the sufferer is experiencing manic depression. To suffer from manic depression is to experience excessive swings of mood. To the extent that the low times can be truly bleak and grey. The highs can be brilliant and colourful before leading into euphoria , mental confusion and delusions, which can be very distressing not only for the sufferer but also for those around him or her, who do not understand the extent of the illness. Another term for this condition is bipolar affective disorder, “affective” in this case is another word for mood. Dealing with manic depression is all about coming to terms with the mood swings that sufferers experience with extreme highs and lows.
