Similar Disorders
Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition characterized by mood swings that include emotional highs, often called mania or hypomania, and lows such as depression. These mood swings can last for days, weeks, or even longer, and can significantly impact your ability to function in everyday life. There are two main types of bipolar disorder:
- Bipolar I: This type involves manic episodes lasting at least seven days or requiring hospitalization, often followed by depressive episodes.
- Bipolar II: Involves hypomanic episodes (less intense than manic episodes) and depressive episodes, but no full manic episodes.

Bipolar Disorder & Substance Use
For some people, bipolar disorder and substance use can intertwine to worsen the symptoms of both. Drugs or alcohol may be used to cope with depression, anxiety, or intense mood changes, even though these substances can interfere with sleep, emotional regulation, and overall stability.
We recognize that healing requires looking at the full picture. Our dual diagnosis programs treat bipolar disorder and substance use together, giving clients the opportunity to understand their symptoms, identify patterns that may contribute to substance use, and develop healthier ways to manage their mental health. By addressing both concerns, clients can work toward greater stability and prevent relapses.

When is inpatient or residential treatment appropriate for bipolar disorder?
Inpatient or residential treatment may be necessary when experiencing severe symptoms of bipolar 1, particularly during manic episodes that might pose a risk to oneself or others. This level of care provides a structured environment, medication management, intensive therapy, and continuous support, crucial for managing severe episodes.
Residential care is usually not necessary for symptoms of bipolar 2. However, it is important to reach out for professional support if symptoms are interfering with your quality of life. Get in touch with our team to see if residential treatment is the right level of care for your needs

How can I support a loved one with bipolar disorder?
Supporting someone diagnosed with bipolar disorder involves empathy, understanding, and patience. Encourage them to adhere to their treatment plan and medication regimen.
