Children can develop Bipolar Disorder

Both children and adolescents can develop bipolar disorder. It is more likely to affect the children of parents who have the illness. Unlike many adults with bipolar disorder, whose episodes tend to be more clearly defined, children and young adolescents with the illness often experience very fast mood swings between depression and mania many times within a day.6 Children with mania are more likely to be irritable and prone to destructive tantrums than to be overly happy and elated. Mixed symptoms also are common in youths with bipolar disorder. Older adolescents who develop the illness may have more classic, adult-type episodes and
symptoms. Bipolar disorder in children and adolescents can be hard to tell apart from other problems that may occur in these age groups. For example, while irritability and aggressiveness can indicate bipolar disorder, they also can be symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, conduct disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, or other types of mental disorders more common among adults such as major depression or schizophrenia. Drug abuse also may lead to such symptoms. For any illness, however, effective treatment depends on appropriate diagnosis. Children or adolescents with emotional and behavioral symptoms should be carefully evaluated by a mental health professional. Any child or adolescent who has suicidal feelings, talks about suicide, or attempts suicide should be taken seriously and should receive immediate help from a mental health specialist.

2012 Movie

aCenturies ago, the Mayans left us their calendar, with a clear end date and all that it implies. Since then, astrologists have discovered it, numerologists have fund patterns that predict it, geologists say the earth is overdue for it, and even government scientists cannot deny the cataclysm of epic proportions that awaits the earth in 2012. A prophecy that began with the Mayans has now been well-chronicled, discussed, taken apart and examined. By 2012, we’ll know we were warned..
The paragraph above is the prologue of the film that is currently the world community controversy, including in Indonesia. Surprised to hear rumors that in the year 2012 will be a major natural disaster, very likely is the end of the world. Plus I live in Indonesia as is often the case when natural disasters such as tsunamis, earthquakes, landslides, floods and mudflow. The last is a big earthquake in Padang, West Sumatra. Makes me shudder if the prediction is true. How will I die? What about my family? Friends? Do not want to separate or to see loved ones die! Indeed, I cannot see it! And I'm really not ready to die for it! Many things should I prepare to die, one of which is compliance in accordance with the religious worship which I profess. The main key when I was ready to die. Maybe you will think like me.
When the world community feeling annoyed with the problem, once again Hollywood made a sensation by launching a controversial film. In the film, describes how the end of the world (read: disaster) happens. Visual effects are incredible, to be all looks real! And able to make people want to know about the world, want to feel the sensation of movie made in'Collumbia Pictures'. Reportedly able to reach the first position on the movie box office the first time in release. No doubt 'Collumbia Pictures' benefit greatly from this film
Want to know about the show, I finally decided to buy the DVD version of the film. Here's a brief explanation of the contents of the film in 2012, according to my version
Described in the year 2009, a scientist named DR. Adrian found a natural phenomenon that makes it so worried about something that will happen in 2012 so he must notify the council of government. Then council members immediately notify all necessary authorities to immediately hold a meeting to create some anticipation. The decision was made to build 3 ships for rescue action. With the help of donors, the project finally was completed in a short time, of course, wealthy donors, and get tickets for the ship to escape. How the world communities respond to these issues? Anyone cares to do a demo to the government to immediately take action, some do not care, some do not even know about this problem. Jackson is one of indifference, which he was only thinking about his job. He worked as a personal driver Yuri, a boss of Russia.
Jackson rescue action against his family and then going on. Very lucky, rescued from the earthquake, ground cracks, buildings collapsed, lava, finally boarded the plane and a little more secure when flying. All feel sad at losing; do not want to separate or to see loved ones die. After a struggle, eventually him and his family can be boarded ships and survived of the help of friend. At the end of the story, the earth is formed into a new continent
Character of the actor when playing this movie is different, it is human nature, many are thinking about himself, but there are also other people who care. I conclude from the plot of this movie is less interesting, impressed all be arranged with the money. Rich people have better luck. For its visual effects, very awesome. My opinion after watching this movie, this movie just for profit. 2012 rumors, only to increase sales of the film is not it? About the existence of solar storms can be learned. More experts asked more appropriate solution. The signs of the end of the world (according to what I heard on the basis of religion) would not be predicted at any time, date, year, hours it will happen. Only visible signs of secondary. A simple example, we do not know God. I will not talk much, I'm sure you are more critical in thinking than I am. So, you are more likely to believe in a god destiny or a human prediction? What do you think?

Bipolar disorder causes

Bipolar disorder causes dramatic mood swings&from overly ‘high’ and/or irritable to sad and hopeless, and then back again, often with periods of normal mood in between. Severe changes in energy and behavior go along with these changes in mood. The periods o highs and lows are called episodes of mania and depression.
Signs and symptoms of mania (or a manic episode) include:

• Increased energy, activity, and restlessness
• Excessively ‘high’, overly good, euphoric mood
• Extreme irritability
• Racing thoughts and talking very fast, jumping from one idea to another
• Distractibility, can t concentrate well
• Little sleep needed
• Unrealistic beliefs in one s abilities and powers
• Poor judgment
• Spending sprees
• A lasting period of behavior that is different from usual
• Increased sexual drive
• Abuse of drugs, particularly cocaine, alcohol, and sleeping medications
• Provocative, intrusive, or aggressive behavior
• Denial that anything is wrong

A manic episode is diagnosed if elevated mood occurs with 3 or more of the other symptoms most of the day, nearly every day, for 1 week or longer. If the mood is irritable, 4 additional symptoms must be present.
Signs and symptoms of depression (or a depressive episode) include:

• Lasting sad, anxious, or empty mood
• Feelings of hopelessness or pessimism
• Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, or helplessness
• Loss of interest or pleasure in activities once enjoyed, including sex
• Decreased energy, a feeling of fatigue or of being ‘slowed down’
• Difficulty concentrating, remembering, making decisions
• Restlessness or irritability
• Sleeping too much, or can t sleep
• Change in appetite and/or unintended weight loss or gain
• Chronic pain or other persistent bodily symptoms that are not caused by physical illness or injury
• Thoughts of death or suicide, or suicide attempts

A depressive episode is diagnosed if 5 or more of these symptoms last most of the day, nearly every day, for a period of 2 weeks or longer.

A mild to moderate level of mania is called hypomania. Hypomania may feel good to the person who experiences it and may even be associated with good functioning and enhanced productivity. Thus even when family and friends learn to recognize the mood swings as possible bipolar disorder, the person may deny that anything is wrong. Without proper treatment, however, hypomania can become severe mania in some people or can switch into depression. Sometimes, severe episodes of mania or depression include symptoms of psychosis (or psychotic symptoms). Common psychotic symptoms are hallucinations (hearing, seeing, or otherwise sensing the presence of things not actually there) and delusions (false, strongly held beliefs not influenced by logical reasoning or explained by a person s usual cultural concepts). Psychotic symptoms in bipolar disorder tend to reflect the extreme mood state at the time. For example, delusions of grandiosity, such as believing one is the President or has special powers or wealth, may occur during mania; delusions of guilt or worthlessness, such as believing that one is ruined and penniless or has committed some terrible crime, may appear during depression.
People with bipolar disorder who have these symptoms are sometimes incorrectly diagnosed as having schizophrenia, another severe mental illness. It may be helpful to think of the various mood states in bipolar disorder as a spectrum or continuous range. At one end is severe depression, above which is moderate depression and then mild low mood, which many people call ‘the blues’ when it is short lived but is termed ‘dysthymia’ when it is chronic. Then there is normal or balanced mood, above which comes hypomania (mild to moderate mania), and then severe mania. In some people, however, symptoms of mania and depression may occur together in what is called a mixed bipolar state. Symptoms of a mixed state often include agitation, trouble sleeping, significant change in appetite, psychosis, and suicidal thinking. A person may have a very sad, hopeless mood while at the same time feeling extremely energized.
Bipolar disorder may appear to be a problem other than mental illness & for instance, alcohol or drug abuse, poor school or work performance, or strained interpersonal relationships. Such problems in fact may be signs of an underlying mood disorder.
