Bipolar II Disorder

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Bipolar II disorder involves at least one hypomanic episode and at least one major depressive episode, without a full manic episode.

Show

Elevated periods are noticeable to others and do not produce the impairment a manic episode requires.

Watch for

Bipolar II is not a milder version overall. Its depressive burden is often greater.
