What are some discussion questions regarding Bipolar Disorder?
I have to present a 20 minute seminar on bipolar disorder and I need to engage my class throughout the presentation. What are some questions I can ask them regarding bipolar disorder? Maybe an activity i can have them do in small groups?
ANYTHING?
Ask them why it’s called bipolar. Depression is unipolar because you are always down. Bipolar means you are euphoric and then depressed.
People with bipolar disorder suffer from anxiety and depression.
People with bipolar disorder can make irrational decisions such as gambling for 2 days straight and binge drinking and then sleep for 2 days and have 20000 dollars in debt.
People are treated with mood stabilizers for the disease.
Anti-depressants can cause bipolar people to go into a manic episode where they will be wired for days.
