Bipolar Disorder Treatment

Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition that causes an intense disturbance in a person’s ability to regulate their mood. The two types of bipolar disorder, bipolar I and bipolar II, bring about fluctuating periods of elated mood (mania) and low mood (depression).

Depending on the individual and the type of bipolar disorder they are experiencing, the duration and intensity of these mood episodes will differ. But everyone who struggles with this mental illness will experience an interruption in functioning that, left untreated, will likely cause them to need professional help. Residential treatment can help you learn to manage your symptoms and
regain control of your life in a safe, supportive setting.

Why Consider Mending Minds As A Treatment Center For Bipolar Disorder

If you are struggling with untreated bipolar disorder, you may feel like your life is spiraling out of control. You may feel unable to see to your responsibilities at home, work, or school, and you may experience strain in significant relationships with friends, family, and romantic partners. There are many ways that bipolar disorder can negatively affect your mental, emotional, and physical health, and without effective treatment, these damages will only worsen over time.

You don’t have to live a life defined by symptoms of mental illness. You can begin life anew with help from a residential treatment program like Mending Minds. Our expert staff will devise an individualized plan of care that reflects your strengths, challenges, and goals for recovery.

Types Of Treatment

When you come to us for help with your bipolar disorder, we’ll perform a variety of evaluations to help us thoroughly understand your needs. Our psychological examinations will help us understand the trauma you’ve been through, the presence of any co-occurring mental health
disorders, and the severity of your condition. A medical assessment will determine whether you’re struggling with any medical complications related to your bipolar disorder.

Medication may be used at the beginning of your stay to help control your symptoms. Medication use will be frequently monitored and adjusted by your treatment team. Some people may only require a short-term course of medication to ease their symptoms, while others may need a more long-term approach to help treat any co-occurring disorders.
Individual therapy is used to address personal issues related to your bipolar disorder. You’ll learn more adaptive ways of coping with your symptoms and practice ways to reduce triggers. We’ll work with you to challenge negative thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more positive reactions and ways of seeing the world.
Group therapy is a common type of therapy we use to help you connect with others who are struggling with similar challenges. Groups allow you to work together in a social setting to grow, learn, and heal. At our treatment center, we offer many different types of groups. Process groups will help you work through challenges with others having similar concerns, while psychoeducational groups provide information related to bipolar disorder, medication, and co-occurring disorders.
Family therapy is an essential aspect of treatment at our center, as the support of loved ones can make a huge difference in your recovery. We’ll work with you and your loved ones to help identify ways they can support your healing, allow them the chance to express their feelings, and provide them with referrals.
