The Truth About Bipolar Disorder in Women
Manage episode 401938739 series 3523320
Did you know women often go undiagnosed for bipolar disorder? Symptoms manifest
differently for women than for men. Hormone fluctuations also make it worse for women.
Estrogen can bring it on sooner. If there is a genetic tendency toward the condition, cannabis
use can also bring it on at an earlier age. What is bipolar disorder? What is manic depression?
Are they the same thing? Psychologist Dr. Aimee Daramus is an expert on all of this and wants
to dispel the misconceptions. Dr. Daramus is the co-host of the Bipolar Girl
Beyond podcast and the author of Understanding Bipolar Disorder – The Essential
Family Guide. She is a nationally-known expert quoted by The Huffington Post, The
Chicago Tribune, NBC, MSN, CNN, and Vogue. Learn the essentials in this episode
of Women Road Warriors with Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro when we talk with Dr.
Daramus.
