These mood changes can affect a person's energy levels, activity, sleep, and behavior, impacting daily functioning and relationships. The disorder is typically classified into different types, such as Bipolar I and Bipolar II, based on the severity and nature of the mood episodes. Treatment often includes a combination of medication, therapy, and lifestyle adjustments.
