My Point of view
I think every person has a bit of bipolarity because we are not always happy or sad all the time. In our life we always have mood swings. but to know control it is necessary and understand that others also have good and bad times. Being tolerant. But when it comes to mental illness is necessary to use specialized help as a psychologist or psychiatrist.
Solutions
medication
Medications used to treat bipolar disorder are known as mood stabilizers; these work by reversing manic or depressive episodes and preventing relapses. The first known and "gold standard" mood stabilizer is lithium carbonate, which is effective in treating acute manic episodes.
