Bipolar 2

Meer over het boek

Bipolar Type 2, often mischaracterized as "soft bipolar," presents a unique challenge due to its less severe symptoms compared to Type 1, yet it significantly impacts quality of life. Individuals experience recurring depression, irritability, and mild manic episodes that may lead to increased energy rather than hyperactivity. The rising prevalence of Type 2, now believed to be three to four times more common than Type 1, raises concerns about misdiagnosis, as subtle symptoms can overlap with depression. Proper medication and therapy are crucial for managing this condition effectively.
