What is bipolar and why do I have it?

Posted by BarbaraCat on September 3, 2002, at 12:28:24

I understand how bipolar makes me feel. I think I understand the etiology of major depression, but realize I have no clue as to what's going on in my bipolar brain. Does anyone have journal articles or otherwise that help explain this beast? Is it electrical disregulation, such as in epilepsy? Is it neurotoxic damage? Why is it cyclicle? Any edification would be much appreciated. - BarbaraCat

Well, I found this article from The Onion most edifying. It is of a biting, bitter, dark humored nature. So if you don't like that kind of thing, you've been warned. Enjoy.
