It is 12.35 midnight and this non-stop headache is really getting on my nerves. I have been suffering like this since two nights ago. I have no idea what is the cause of this. I only hope I am not going to die in the immediate future.
So I have been searching diseases in the internet. I found a kind of mental illness known as Bipolar Disorder. Also known as manic-depression or manic-depressive illness. It is a mental illness characterized by mood instability that is often serious and disabling. A person with bipolar disorder has unusual shifts in mood, energy, and ability to function that can last for weeks or months. The fluctuations of bipolar disorder are different from the general "ups" and "downs" that everyone goes through because symptoms are severe and can result in damaged relationships, poor job or school performance, or even suicide. There are treatments available for bipolar disorder that have allowed people to lead full and productive lives.
Signs and symptoms of depressive episodes (depression):
- Sadness
- Feeling of emptiness
- Hopelessness or pessimism
- Decreased energy
- Suicidal thoughts or behavior
- Anxiety
- Guilt, worthlessness, and helplessness
- Sleep problems
- Appetite problems
- Unintentional weight gain or loss
- Fatigue
- Loss of interest in daily activities
- Lack of desire for sex
- Problems concentrating
- Difficulty making decisions
- Irritability
- Chronic pain without a known cause
