BIPOLAR DISORDER IN
CHILDREN AND TEENAGERS
Have you ever noticed your child go
through extreme mood and behavior
changes? Do you hear people saying your
child is much more excited and active
compared to others? Maybe your child
becomes either too excited or moody.
When these mood swings get too intense
that they disrupt how your child acts at
school or at home, it is advisable to
consider calling a psychiatrist. Some
children or teens having these issues may
have a serious mental illness called bipolar
Formerly known as manic-depressive
illness, bipolar disorder is a brain disorder
that causes strange and dramatic mood
swings, a shift in energy, sleep habits,
activity levels and in general, the ability to
perform daily tasks. The mood swings can
be slow or abrupt, mild or extreme, and
they can last from hours to days,
sometimes weeks.
Symptoms of Bipolar Disorder in
Children and Teens
Identifying bipolar disorder in children and
teens can be a challenge. It is difficult to
classify whether these are normal ups and
downs or signs of a serious mental health
concern.
The most common sign of bipolar disorder
among children and teenagers is the
extreme mood instability that is
incomparable with their usual mood
swings.
To name a few, here are common symptoms to watch
out for:
 Feeling very optimistic followed by despair or extreme
sadness
 Unrealistic thinking can get delusional.
 Fatigue
 Intense angry outbursts
 Abnormal sleeping patterns
 Forget things often.
 Unable to focus.
 Eating too much or too little
 Getting preoccupied with suicidal thoughts.
An individual experiencing bipolar disorder
may have episodes that can worsen over
time. These episodes may come along
with the difficulty in sleeping, changes in
moods, thoughts, and behavior.
Moreover, those who suffer from these
episodes have increased the risk of suicide
and addiction to drugs and alcohol. It is
highly recommended for these individuals
to have regular professional consultation
and treatment.
