They often have normal moods in between. The up feeling is called mania. The down feeling is <a href='https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/depression.html'>depression</a>. The causes of bipolar disorder aren't always clear. It runs in families. Abnormal brain structure and function may also play a role. Bipolar disorder often starts in a person's late teen or early adult years. But children and adults can have bipolar disorder too. The illness usually lasts a lifetime. If you think you may have it, tell your health care provider. A medical checkup can rule out other illnesses that might cause your mood changes. If not treated, bipolar disorder can lead to damaged relationships, poor job or school performance, and even <a href='https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/suicide.html'>suicide</a>. However, there are effective treatments to control symptoms: medicine and talk therapy. A combination usually works best. NIH: National Institute of Mental Health
