What depression in bipolar really looks like

Depression in bipolar includes the following symptoms:

• Feelings of sadness, guilt and worthlessness

• Feeling very irritable or angry

• Drastic loss of energy

• Sleep and eating disturbances

• Loss of motivation to do anything even things a person once enjoyed

• Tendency to isolate and avoid contact with other people

• Persistent thoughts of death and suicide.

When a person is experiencing symptoms of mania they are not just happy for a few hours or days, they are beyond euphoric where they feel a great spurt of energy and a feeling of grandiosity around other people, which can last for a week or more..
