Educating the Child with Bipolar Disorder
 

   EDUCATING THE CHILD WITH

       BIPOLAR DISORDER 
 
Bipolar disorder is a biological brain disorder

causing severe fluctuations in mood, energy,

thinking and behavior. It was previously known

as manic depression, as it causes moods to shift

between mania and depression. Children—whose

symptoms present differently than those of

adults—can experience severe and sudden mood

changes many times a day. Symptoms of mania

and depression can also occur simultaneously.

Young people with this disorder are frequently anxious and have very low
 
frustration tolerance.
