Bipolar Disorder Explained: What Lilburn Residents Need to Know

Living with Mood Swings in Georgia? You’re Not Alone.

Bipolar disorder isn’t just about being moody—it’s a serious mental health condition that impacts nearly 5 million people in the U.S. At Jehovah’s Behavioral Care in Lilburn, Georgia, we often meet individuals who struggle with the highs and lows of this condition without even realizing they have it.

What Is Bipolar Disorder?

Bipolar disorder is characterized by extreme mood swings—from emotional highs (mania or hypomania) to deep lows (depression). These episodes can last days, weeks, or even months and severely disrupt a person’s life, work, and relationships.

Signs You Might Have Bipolar Disorder

  • Intense mood changes from extreme happiness to deep sadness

  • Racing thoughts or inability to focus

  • Overspending or risky behavior during “high” periods

  • Sleep disturbances

  • Feelings of worthlessness during depressive episodes
