Mood Disorders
I’m a big believer that all of us who have mood disorders, or know someone who does, need to understand the definition of the illnesses before dealing with symptoms. Mood disorders make it difficult for a person to regulate their moods- which is why so many people with depression often hear that they should just get control of their emotions and not be so sensitive and negative!
There are two types of mood disorders: Unipolar Depression and Bipolar Disorder. Both are considered genetic disorders and they share many symptoms. There is also a form of depression called situational depression, where a person becomes depressed due to a specific event and then goes back to a stable mood once the event and its aftermath is over. This article focuses on Unipolar Depression and Bipolar Depression.
