While it is common for people to experience mood swings from time to time, bipolar disorder is much more severe. When someone has bipolar disorder (also known as manic depression) their mood shifts from periods of over-excitement and feeling like you're "on fire" (manic episodes) to periods of feeling severely depressed (depressive episodes).

During manic episodes, it's common to have a generally elevated mood, be highly active, experience higher self-esteem and need less sleep. This often alternates with depressive periods where you feel little joy in life, have problems sleeping, gain or lose weight and experience a loss of energy.

While this can be stressful and even debilitating, there is hope. Our therapy for bipolar is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which has been shown in research studies to help people with bipolar disorder, often used in conjunction with medication. You see, it is your thoughts that affect your perception of the world, and with bipolar disorder, your brain tends to process information in an inaccurate and distorted way. With the help of your therapist, you will be able to identify and challenge these distorted and negative thought patterns that cause your stress and even harmful behavior. By identifying the situations that trigger your manic and depressive episodes, you will be more aware of when a mood shift is about to happen. And, eventually, you will be able to control your emotions and stress. By discovering new coping and behavioral skills, you will be able to stick to a treatment plan and live a more stable lifestyle, which will reduce the risks of a relapse.

"I had to do some searching for a therapist who I felt listened to me and gave thoughtful feedback, but once I found them, the therapy has been so rewarding. I have learned so much about myself and my therapist always leaves me with something to think about. I recommend this platform to everyone I'm close to."

"Online-therapy.com is a amazing way for introverts like me who worry about having to do therapy face-to-face. My therapist Jennifer has been amazing. I was stuck in literally all aspects in life, and wanted to give up trying to work towards my goals as they seemed impossible for someone like me. But with Jennifer, I am able to work towards them everyday, a small step at a time. Highly recommend both online-therapy.com and Jennifer."
