In Spain, it is estimated to have 2% of the population Dipolar disorderA disease that appears to be due to change in the process of responsible brain structures Regulate the mood.
This is a very bad disorder Psychiatrist Jose Manuel MandusOften does not have to do with the film with the reality of this disorder The depression clinic has been replaced Others opposite: Eccentricity More than normal … we call the mania, which is not generally understood to have mad or entertainment. “In addition, these states, both mania and depression, escape the control of the individual.
These are often made of this status reasons, or It is found too late -Hall 6 or 7 years– or it is, directly, this is not found because it is estimated Only half of this disorder has the diagnosis.
The rest, or without a diagnosis or have false diagnostic, “most patients, when going to the doctor, look at the depression clinic, sometimes leading to false diagnches, especially Deedness Generic unipolar, non -tone. High times are often overlooked, and sometimes they contain comorpiditis -compliance with other diseases -such as the disorders. Anxiety. In fact, approximately 10% of those who had been depressed were actually found. ”
10% of those who are diagnosed with depression are really bipolar disorder
Stigma and disability
You are Three different types of bipolar disorder: Type 1 (Classified by hysterical chapters and in some cases characterized by depression chapters), Type 2 (In which a replacement is shown with hypomania chapters and great depression chapters) and Cyclomia (In which the mood is mild).
However, it should not be considered that one is more serious or more inability than the other, but it The intensity of these determines whether it is just or less or less disabledBecause everyone can be. In fact, “30% of patients have the type of patients. They can have significant disability.”
However, Dr. Mandas wants to make it clear A large percentage patients can live in full life No disability, “many people have extraordinary activity, especially if it is soon and well -treated, because Well -controlled, which can become unidentified. Disability is usually linked to excessive chronic, complicity, and anti -narcotics, ”he explains.
Thus this does not happen, on the one hand, It should be detected as soon as possibleOn the other hand, you have to be a The right attitudeWhat’s going on, yes or yes, by drugs, ”Basalology”, Jose Manuel Montez says.
Therefore, this does not mean that this is the only condition that does not mean that, because “Another type of mental health treatments that satisfy it is best.
This integrated approach is usually done well in our country, including this, in general Psychological therapy approachBut, as the Montez warns, “If there are no specific units of bipolar disorder, as some hospitals, they can control this psychological treatment area, especially in the attitude.”
In the future we may have other alternatives but the drug is necessary today
To fight the stigma of mental illness
With bipolar disorders it happens like many mental illnesses, which It is surrounded by stigma, misinformation, false myths and many other occasions,This leads to a lack of awareness of the disease, as patients suffer more than themselves, “Mental illnesses are always unknown and there is always too much stigma, so you should spread.”
With an excellent wide, respectiveness ends and embedded can be reduced, “We must understand that they are ones Changes in the mood in a durable way It affects its quality of life, which is not just about getting up with someone to get up with their left foot and raise the other one day. All of us have differences in the mood, but the variations of the mood in bipolar disorder are notable, medically prolonged in time and They cause great om blackness to the patientThat is why they need a treatment. ”
The main impact of this respectful and stigmaking patients, in many cases, or “because of the excessive ignorance, does not fear accurately fear for those misconceptions The fear of being socially excluded . There’s a lot Pharmaceutical treatments stigma In mental disorders, people have a lot of fear and prejudice about psychotropic … ”
On the one hand, it should not be identified, not asking for help, and on the other hand, you don’t want to say it, ”They believe that having mental illness is something that can be rejectedThe truth is that mental illness and disorders, with a good attitude, allow them to lead a completely normal life, and that is something to be said, ”he emphasizes.
There is still a lot of stigma with psyotropic drugs
To complete, this makes it clear that a claim World bipolar disorder day: Mental illnesses are considered to be someone else, “Diseases that affect the parts of our senses, but they are as natural as diabetes, which is the failure of the failure of the glucose. Therefore, people with mental illness should not look different Mental illnessA treatment. There are enough units in Spain and are worthy of ensuring the good evolution of these diseases, with it, to avoid disability and allow you to live in full. ”
