Yes. If left untreated, bipolar 2 can easily turn into bipolar 1 or possibly even rapid cycling Bipolar disorder.

Yes, even with treatment (although it is much less likely in such a case) bipolar two disorder can become bipolar one disorder. This would happen when the hypomanic episodes of Bipolar 2 become more severe and harmful manic episodes. This change has been known to most often happen after somebody has had the disorder for some time.
To clarify the first answer: Rapid cycling can occur in any type of bipolar disorder. It is not really its own type of bipolar disorder, rather, it is a condition that can occur with a bipolar disorder. It refers to a person who experiences four or more bipolar mood swings in a year. This can also develop over time or be a part of the disorder from the start.
It is a less obvious form of bipolar, compared to bipolar 1. but as there mood changes more rapidly and often, bipolar 2 has a higher suicide rate

Did you mean Bipolar, this is a mental illness which is also known as a mood disorder. Its called bi which refers to TWO and polar referring polarity so two polarity, hence we have bipolar 1 n bipolar 2. A person wit bipolar 1 displays severe mood swings n mania with mild depression. A person with bipolar 2 displays severe depression with mild mania, there is also cyclothymic bipolar which is a border line bipolar that often goes undiagnosed
There are 3 types 1) monopolar 2)bipolar 3)homopolar
Sure. But so can people with leukemia, arthritis, and HIV. Having Bipolar Disorder doesn't automatically mean you'll turn out to be a sociopath.
It is 1/2 of a turn.
So far I've only heard that magnets are bipolar, meaning that they have 2 poles, not to be confused with Bipolar disorder.
having 2 poles
2/1
Because stress is the trigure of these episodes that make us bipolar: being overly happy, or overly sad. Normal people have shorter wavelengths between the two phases but bipolar people have extreme wavelengths between the two. Bipolar people can be in the manic phase for years until a stressful trigure, and boom, the cycle begins between happyness and sadness and once you understood bipolar 1, you will know why..like me for example...we fear stresses of life and have anxiety that the cycle will begin again, so medications keeps us balanced like a normal person. Bipolar 2 is less severe form of bipolar 2, but i've had/have both and can say bipolar 1 is painfull... We suffer alot and it sucks mighty bull balls... later :))
