Bipolar disorder is a lifelong condition that is characterized by periods of depression and mania, which are on opposite ends of the mood spectrum. The severity of these episodic periods can vary from person to person and may negatively affect things like sleep, energy, daily behavior, and judgement. 

During the depressive state, a person may describe feeling sad, hopeless, helpless, or a loss of enjoyment in activities. In contrast, the manic state is usually a creative, hyperactive, euphoric experience with increased energy levels.
