For the treatment of bipolar disorder, how long do you think it will take?

I think it will take a year, because the ** program of this disease is divided into three stages, and each stage takes about three months.

It's about a year, you must cooperate with the doctor's advice, use medicine reasonably, do your own happy things, and don't let yourself be too depressed.

It takes about half a month, so that it can be effective, and the recovery effect is very good, and the way can be effectively combined.

It takes about 3 to 5 years to cure this disease, because this disease is a very serious psychological disease, so it may not be easily cured.

It's better to be in your twenties....It's harder to be in your forties....Because of worry, anxiety, incomprehension, and incomprehension, there are many more aspects than when I was younger...

What should I do if I am repeatedly forced to be hospitalized eleven times, but I still do not cooperate**, and I am sick again???

Bipolar disorder belongs to the animal kingdom, and it has nothing to do with you.

Bipolar disorder is complex and varied, sometimes "high" and sometimes "low". May be accompanied by anxiety, psychiatric symptoms, mixed states, seizures, and even suicide. Some patients may also have a physical condition, which further complicates the situation.

Decisions also need to be made based on factors such as the presence of other psychiatric disorders, medications, adherence, and psychosocial stress. The psychosocial stressor of the patient is significant, i.e., investment failure. I hope everyone can come out of the shadows as soon as possible, which will be of great benefit to the disease.

Due to the high frequency of bipolar disorder, especially in patients with rapid circulation. Therefore, bipolar disorder requires a long-term process, in addition to rapid relief of acute symptoms, it is also necessary to improve the patient's compliance to prevent the disease. After the drug**, the patient who improves his condition needs to continue the original **2-3 months to prevent the disease**.

After that, maintenance is required to prevent it. During the maintenance period, under the guidance of a professional doctor, the dosage and type of medication can be appropriately reduced, but mood stabilizers are still essential drugs and should not be discontinued.

At present, the development of psychiatric hospitals in China is unbalanced, and individual hospitals are not standardized, requiring patients to do their homework in advance. How can I tell if it's normal? It depends on whether the doctor can objectively describe the bipolar disorder.

If a doctor says it's too serious, don't believe it. **No one can be sure before; If some doctors are too sure, pay close attention because every patient is different and varies greatly from person to person.

At present, some high-level hospitals will carry out genetic testing to guide the use of drugs, which has a certain scientific basis. The principle of genetic testing is to guide medication based on the results of liver drug enzyme metabolism. Different metabolic rates allow our bodies to adapt to different medications.

However, this genetic test is used to guide the speed of drug addition and subtraction, and to guide the appropriateness of the combination. However, there is no significance for the efficacy index for the time being, and it can only be said that there is a certain scientific basis.

The first method is emotional**, you can read relevant professional books and change your thinking habits. Reduces the physical impact of emotions. The second method is medication**, take the relevant medication and record the changes in the body, and the third method is exercise**, regular exercise and diet are also beneficial**.

We should protect our eyes, and we should do eye exercises, or do it through drugs, and we can do acupuncture, we can use laser polishing, etc., which are all better methods.

At this time, you must go to the hospital in time to do **, and then you should eat some foods with high nutritional value and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. Then also exercise in moderation, which can increase the body's resistance and immunity.

You can do it regularly, you can also enhance your psychological pressure, with the help of a doctor, you can still do it, and you also need to be stronger to overcome these difficulties.

There are types of bipolar disorder, type two, and mixed.

2) basic diagnostic features of bipolar II: at least 1 hypomanic episode; At least 1 major depressive episode; Neither hypomanic nor depressive episodes are related to medications, substance use, or illness.

3) basic diagnostic features of mixed disorder: hypomania and depressive symptoms for 2 years; Does not meet diagnostic criteria for hypomania and major depression; The asymptomatic period lasted less than 8 weeks during the 2-year period.

Differences: 1. The degree of mania and depression is different. One is typical bipolar disorder and depression, both of which are very severe; Type 2 is a typical hypomanic major depression, that is, the mania is mild, and the degree is significantly lower than the degree of depression; The mixed form is a rapid mix or alternation of short episodes (over a few hours) of hypomanic, manic, and depressive symptoms.

2. The severity of the disease is different. Type 1 patients have severe depression, and type 2 patients have milder depression. Mixed forms are usually depression for many years.

3. The age of onset is different. Type 1 begins mainly in adolescents and tends to have their first episodes at a younger age, around the age of 18, usually with a hypomanic episode, but can also be a depressive episode or a mixed episode. Bidirectional type 2 is characterized by reversible depression or hypomania with frequent depressive episodes.

4. Different ** effects. Bipolar disorder type 2 is obvious, it is characterized by mild manic symptoms, such as taciturnity, easy to drop things when angry, smashing things, tantrums, etc. Type 2 people sometimes have a clear mind, realize what they did wrong after doing it, and reflect on it afterwards.

The study found that patients who had been treated with drugs had a higher rate within one year after stopping the drug, and the rate of bipolar disorder was significantly higher than that of unipolar depressive disorder, which was 40% and 30%, respectively. The vast majority of patients with bipolar disorder may have more than one episode**; If bipolar patients have had more than one episode per year in the past 2 years, long-term lithium prophylaxis is advocated**. Taking lithium prophylactic ** can effectively prevent manic or bipolar depression**, and it is more effective in preventing manic episodes, with an effective rate of more than 80%.

The dose of lithium salt for prophylaxis** varies from person to person, but the blood lithium concentration should be maintained at a satisfactory rate during the period of taking the drug.

A 10-year study of patients with depressive disorders found that 75% to 80% of patients had multiple times**. It has been reported that the probability of depressive disorder is 50% after the first depressive episode, 75% for the second episode, and 100% for the third episode, so patients with depressive disorder need to be maintained**, prevented**. If the patient has a first attack and is clinically relieved by the drug, the maintenance time of the drug is believed by most scholars to be 6 months to 1 year; If it is a second episode, it is advocated to maintain **3 to 5 years; If it is the third attack, it should be maintained for a long time**, or even lifelong medication.

The dose of the maintenance drug should be the same as the dose or slightly lower than the dose, but the patient should be instructed to follow up regularly, and the psychological and social support systems also play a very important role in the prevention of the disease.
