How Do You Explain Bipolar to People?
Bipolar consists of cycling between mania and depression alternately. It is considered a mood disorder because of the elevated moods in mania and the depressed condition in depression. Within bipolar there is Bipolar I which tends to not get too depressed, but can get extremely manic, and Bipolar II, which means limited or no mania, but severe depression. And there are those who experience both extreme mania and depression, and it is exhausting kind of like repeatedly trying to travel either all the way to North Pole or the South Pole, and then having to change direction in between.
A famous scientist who has been bipolar: Sir Isaac Newton we couldn't have gone to the moon without Newton's laws of motion and physics realizations.
Depression and Mania are not really a "black" or "white" situation, but a mixed black/white penguin going in and out of the water at either the North or South Pole is not a bad metaphor either.
