Bipolar Disorder Therapy & Treatment Bethesda, MD

We can help manage mood swings.

Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition characterized by intense mood swings, which encompass extreme emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). The Capital Institute boasts significant expertise in the treatment of bipolar disorder, typically employing a combination of medication and psychotherapy.

During depressive episodes, individuals often grapple with overwhelming feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a pervasive loss of interest or pleasure in their usual activities. In contrast, during manic or hypomanic phases (less severe than full-blown mania), individuals may experience elevated moods, heightened energy levels, or unusual irritability.

These mood swings can manifest either infrequently or multiple times within a year. While most individuals may experience some emotional symptoms between these episodes, others may not encounter any such symptoms. Despite being a lifelong condition, effective management of mood swings and other symptoms is attainable through the implementation of a structured treatment plan.
