Disorders
Many people are misdiagnosed or not even diagnosed at all with some form of disorder, such as depression, post-traumatic stress, and anxiety. Two of the most commonly misdiagnosed disorder is Bipolar and Borderline Personality Disorder. These disorders are so commonly related it is sometimes is difficult for some doctors to diagnose them. Bipolar and Borderline Personality Disorder comes in different stages and subtypes. Bipolar and BPD have many similar causes and symptoms that can affect people as an individual.

One phase is Bipolar I which can cause major manic mood swings in jobs, relationships, or schools.

The highs and lows aren’t as severe as the other two and don’t happen as often. People might be thinking or asking what causes these disorders and what the symptoms are.

Doctors seem to believe that genetics, hormones, brain abnormalities, and environmental factors are what these disorders stem from. People can have any number of symptoms with these disorders. The manic phase of Bipolar and BP Disorder has many similar symptoms.
