What It Feels Like…
I don’t feel like sleeping, I feel like I’ve never been more productive, with all the money I have I can buy whatever I want. However, there are moments when I am not able to get out of bed, when I feel like I can’t cope with my life anymore. This has led me to believe I am bipolar, as others have suggested.
Description
Affecting approximately 60 million individuals globally, bipolar affective disorder is characterized by a cyclical pattern of manic and depressive episodes, separated by periods of normal mood. During manic episodes, patients may display heightened mood, irritability, increased energy levels, excessive talkativeness, elevated self-esteem, and reduced need for sleep. Mood-stabilizing medications are available to effectively manage the acute phases of bipolar disorder and prevent relapses. In addition, psychosocial support is an essential element of treatment. (WHO, 2018, para. 7-8).
Treatment
Evaluation
The treatment begins with an initial assessment by our therapeutic team so that once the patient is assessed, a personalized strategy can be developed tailored to their individual needs and circumstances.
Therapy
Through various occupational therapies, combined with psychotherapy and comprehensive family support, we facilitate a holistic approach that allows the patient to embark on a process focused on fostering recovery or stabilization. This is done within the comfort of our spacious facility and a therapeutic team with extensive experience.
Medications
We provide a pharmaceutical service where patients receive dedicated supervision from our pharmaceutical chemist and specialists, who ensure not only the availability of medications for psychiatric pathologies but also for their underlying pathologies.
