Contact UsSigns and Symptoms
Bipolar disorder is an illness that is described by cycling through one or various states of episodes of mania, hypomania, or depression. It is therefore important to understand these phases and their respective signs, which will help in the diagnosis of this condition and in seeking treatment.
Manic Episodes: In manic episodes, patients generally have an abnormally elevated or irritable mood, increased energy, and a reduced need for sleep. It may manifest in irresponsible behavior, delusions, racing thoughts, and inflated self-esteem. Such episodes can be unpleasant and cause dramatic changes in one’s work and personal life.
Hypomanic Episodes: Hypomania is a less severe form of mania; people experiencing hypomania may feel unusually energetic, euphoric, or irritable. These episodes are not as profound as mania, yet they cause disability and can occur before or after depressive episodes.
Depressive Episodes: Feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and the lack of pleasure that the individual once used to derive from things are some of the characteristic features of the bipolar depressive phase. Some of the possible symptoms include changes in appetite, altered sleep cycles, fatigue, and suicidal thoughts. Such episodes can be so severe that they can be debilitating and require immediate attention.
Recognizing these signs and symptoms is the first step toward getting help. If you or a loved one is experiencing any of these symptoms, Orlando Treatment Solutions is ready to help.
Our Approach to Bipolar Disorder Treatment
At Orlando Treatment Solutions, we understand that every patient is unique, which is why we offer personalized and integrated treatment plans for bipolar disorder. Our treatment approach is based on the belief that every person is unique and as such their treatment plan should be unique. We do not prescribe a one-size-fits-all approach to the delivery of treatment services to our clients.
Our comprehensive approach combines medication management, therapy, and lifestyle interventions to ensure that our clients receive the most effective care possible.
Treatment Options
The following is a list of the treatment options we provide for bipolar disorder to cater to all the needs of the patient. Our staff consists of mental health professionals of different specialties who jointly create the most optimal treatment program.
Medication Management:
Mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, and antidepressants are the main classes of medications used in the treatment of mania, hypomania, and depression. Our team of psychiatrists works closely with each client to come up with the most suitable treatment plan depending on the patient’s history, the current condition of the patient, and the possible side effects that may arise from the medication. The treatment plan is constantly monitored and changes are made as and when required.
Therapy and Counseling:
Therapy is one of the key elements that is used in the management of bipolar disorder. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is one of the most useful therapeutic methods for the treatment of bipolar disorder symptoms. CBT helps clients to alter the kinds of thoughts and behaviors that bring about mood changes.
Besides individual therapy, we also provide family therapy and group therapy. Support groups give people a way to feel they belong to a community of individuals who are facing the same problems they are facing and, thus, decrease loneliness.
Lifestyle and Wellness Programs:
A higher level of physical activity and a healthy diet are important for patients suffering from bipolar disorder. At Orlando Treatment Solutions, we emphasize the importance of routine, structure, and self-care in managing symptoms.
We also offer mindfulness and relaxation techniques, including yoga and meditation, to enable clients to overcome stress and emotional dysregulation.
