While working with individuals diagnosed with bipolar disorder, I've learned...
Complete and proper diagnoses of mental illnesses, symptoms associated with them, and providing adequate treatment needs to be a main objective compared to focusing on new drugs that most can't afford.
Mental Illness has always been looked upon as something that is associated with being week, lacking control over ones self.
Mental illness is a condition that alters a person's thoughts , emotions, ability to communicate and function daily.
For years, families have placed their loved ones in facilities whose primary focus was those who were diagnosed with severe mental illnesses.
Manic depression is currently known as bipolar disorder, an illness that causes severe high and low mood changes within a person.
...symptoms include loss of energy, feelings of hopelessness or worthlessness, difficulty with concentration and decision making, not to mention thoughts of death or suicide (Fawcett, Golden, and Rosenfield 32).
Researchers have identified a gene that may be linked to this disorder.
