Disorder II Many people are familiar with the main types of bipolar disorder – bipolar disorder I and bipolar. However, like many people are familiar with other types of bipolar disorder: hypomania and cyclothymia.
If you have three or more of the following listed below most of the day – almost every day – for a week or more, you may have bipolar mania:
• excessive happiness (joy), hope, and emotion
• Sudden changes from being happy to be irritable, angry, and hostile
• Restlessness, increased energy and decreased need for sleep
• talk fast, talkative, interrupting the prayers of others
Distraction •
• Racing thoughts
• increased sexual desire
• Tendency to make grand plans and unattainable
• Tendency to show lack of criteria, such as deciding to leave a job
Inflation • Self-esteem or grandiosity – unrealistic beliefs in the ability, intelligence and competence, may be delusional
• Increased reckless behaviors (such as excessive spending, sexual risk behavior, substance abuse and / or ill-advised business decisions)
Hypomania is simply a lower intensity (severe) of mania. The person may appear to be in a better mood than usual, but do not show the extreme euphoria in a manic episode. May experience a greater sense of well being and feel as if more productive.
One problem for the person experiencing hypomania, however, is that you can fool to them. Hypomania can become full-blown mania, or you can fall into a depressive episode bipolar.
Cyclothymia is another type of bipolar disorder and, according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) American Psychiatric Association, a diagnosis of cyclothymia is based on the following:
1. Individual has had many periods of both hypomania and depression for a period of at least two years.
