What is Bipolar Disorder?

People diagnosed with bipolar disorder experience cycles of depression and mania that are also called manic depression, endogenous depression, cyclothemia and cyclic depression. The symptoms of a systemic condition called identify conflict can be dissolved during systemic coaching.

The name bipolar disorder may be applied to an episode of depression or mania, to recurring depressive episodes or to a cycle of depression and mania. Although symptoms associated with bipolar disorder are often managed with medication, systemic coaching can also provide great assistance to resolve underlying relationship conflicts.

Bipolar disorder is often associated with entangled relationships, trauma and emotional incest.

Manic phase Depressive phase
  • feeling euphoric, elevated, or "high"
  • agitation, irritability, restlessness
  • racing thoughts, talkativeness
  • sleep disorders
  • inflated self-esteem; poor judgment
  • reckless activities
  • delusions or hallucinations
  • feeling depressed, low or "down"
  • feeling melancholy and hopeless
  • difficulty making decisions
  • low self-evaluation
  • low interest in daily activities
  • withdrawal from family or friends
  • suicidal thoughts, plans or attempts

How is Bipolar Disorder diagnosed?

There are no medical or diagnostic tests - only human opinions that cannot be confirmed in a laboratory. Symptoms of bipolar disorder may resemble some food allergies and identity conflict.

A person with identity conflict often makes decisions or promises in one persona, and forgets, ignores or denies those decisions and promises when an other persona is active.

Why Some People have Bipolar?

The symptoms of bipolar disorder seem related to identity conflict, a consequence of children coping with parental conflicts. See emotional incest. A person showing bipolar symptoms associated with identity conflict may express at least two identifications, and swing between them.

People with bipolar symptoms may have identified with two people who are or were in conflict with each other. For example, if one parent was depressed, and the other aggressive, a child may attempt to show allegiance to both parents - throughout his or her life.

If one parent was frequently absent, missing or dead, a child may perceive the missing parent through the descriptions and behavior of the remaining parent. If the remaining parent dislikes the missing parent, the remaining parent may alienate the other parent in the mind of the child. Soulwork coaching can help prevent and control the consequences of Parental Alienation (PAS)

Treatment of Bipolar Disorder

After diagnosing bipolar disorder, doctors may prescribe medications to help people manage their emotions. The most common medications prescribed for bipolar disorder are lithium and Thorazine (chlorpromazine). Another treatment is electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Systemic coaching can help improve mood stability, with fewer hospitalizations and better functioning.

Side Effects of Lithium
Increased frequency of urination or lost bladder control is more common in women than in men. Patients may experience increased thirst; mild nausea and trembling of hands.

Side Effects of Thorazine (Chlorpromazine)
Increased constipation; decreased sweating; dizziness; drowsiness; dry mouth and congestion.

Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)

ECT is passing an electric current through the brain to cause a convulsion. Electroshock is generally used to treat patients with depression, mania and schizophrenia, especially for people who do not respond well to, or abreact to, psychotropic medications.

Side Effects of Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)
Electrocution, brain damage, memory loss, increased distractibility, difficulty with multiple tasks, trouble with arithmetic and language, nausea and headaches are all associated with electroshock.

Systemic Coaching & Complex Conflict

Bipolar disorder may be an example of a complex conflict (often called identity conflict in systemic coaching). Our systemic coaching can help support and guide people who suffer from complex conflict, and may be useful for long-term resolution of many symptoms. We coach people to dissolve complex conflict and to manage inappropriate thoughts and uncomfortable emotions.

Couple coaching and parent coaching can reduce stress and the possibility of emotional incest.

Our systemic coaching helps people improve their relationships, clarify life goals, dissolve inner conflict and manage unpleasant emotions. It can help people dissolve toxic relationship bonds, trauma, abuse, and mentor damage.

Consult your physician about any opinions concerning medical symptoms or medical conditions.
