Bipolar Disorder

How does it feel?

In this Bipolar video, participants share how depression impacts upon their daily emotions and physical wellbeing. A general lack of energy and motivation is typical of the depression cycle of bipolar, and grand ideas and abundant motivation typical of the manic phase. However, how bipolar effects each person individually can vary greatly.

These Speaking From Experience clips offer first hand accounts from people with Bipolar Disorder and their families.
