While it is common for people to experience mood changes from time to time, bipolar disorder is much more severe. When someone has bipolar disorder (also known as manic depression), their mood shifts between periods of elevated or highly energized mood (manic or hypomanic episodes) and periods of depression.

During manic episodes, a person may feel unusually energetic, confident, and active, often needing less sleep. These periods can alternate with depressive phases that involve low mood, loss of interest in activities, changes in sleep or appetite, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating.

Living with bipolar disorder can be challenging, but many people learn ways to better understand and manage mood changes and build stability over time. Our online therapy program uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles to help people better understand their thoughts, behaviors, and emotional patterns. CBT is often used as a supportive approach alongside medical care. With guidance from a therapist, you can learn to recognize early warning signs of mood changes, develop healthier coping strategies, and build routines that support emotional stability. By increasing awareness of potential triggers and learning practical skills, many people find it easier to manage stress and maintain a more balanced daily life.

People experiencing symptoms of bipolar disorder should consult qualified healthcare professionals for proper evaluation and care.

"I have very much appreciated the feedback that I have gotten from Stephanie and it is encouraging to work through the different workbook sessions. I have discovered some surprising things about myself and also some difficult things about myself. Working through some of my behaviours has been challenging but onward and upward."

"The accelerated way that CBT functions is great and I got lucky with my therapist first try and connected very well. Sometimes it can be a little overwhelming but I think that is just the structure and how fast you dive into it."

"This platform is good if you want to get better but at your own pace. I like that there's not deadlines or a necessary end point for the worksheets, you can go back and review them if you need to reflect again or need to revisit those tools. You have to be able to hold yourself accountable and really want to change, but if you do that, then you will find yourself growing as a person and doing necessary and healthy reflection more and more in your life outside of the platform as time goes on.

I like being able to meet with my therapist once a week. It works great with my schedule and is a good check-in each week where I can truly reflect on my progress and know that I am growing as an individual. I also like that I can send a message whenever, and she will get back to me within 24 hours with a response, so even if something happens before my weekly live session, I can still talk about these things and get advice or even just vent, and know that I will get a response soon.

This experience has opened my eyes to a lot of things in my life that need to change, for myself and for other people. Though I plan to continue on with this journey, and still use the platform, I can see and feel myself growing as a person and have a clearer head about things in my life. I feel happier, healthier, and hold myself more accountable now than I did before I started this journey. Though I'm still figuring out where exactly I'd like my life to go next, I feel a lot better about the future and don't feel fear and anxiety ruling my life anymore. I doubt myself a lot less, and have learned strategies to set reasonable boundaries in my life, and can do that now without feeling bad about it even though they're good things for me.

At times the platform is difficult to work with, for instance sometimes there are connection issues that interrupt live sessions with no way to repair them on my therapists end or mine, and it's difficult to cancel/reschedule a live session with my therapist even though I am within the cancellation timeframe. I've noticed a few spelling errors on different sections as well, but I think with these things being repaired then this would be a perfect platform."
