Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder is a disease that affects over 2 million adults and late teens. It has many different symptoms and takes place over a long period of time. However it is treatable and a person who has Bipolar Disorder can lead a normal and productive life if they get the right treatment. There are two parts of this disorder, depressive and manic. Both have many different side effects that greatly affect a person's mood. Bipolar disorder is also known as a "manic-depressive illness" and can affect anyone; age, race, or gender does not make a difference, although it is more common in people in late teens to late twenties.

It is caused by an unbalance in brain chemicals, but we do not know much about how this happens.
