About Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive disorder, is a psychological disorder based on cyclical mood swings. People in a manic state can be energetic, positive and productive. In extreme manic states people can experience hallucinations and delusions. Conversely, people in the depressive side of the cycle can exhibit the opposite behaviors of the manic state with a propensity for suicide. For some it can be crushing, but for others it can lead to creativity, goal striving, and positive achievements.
About Healthcare
Healthcare is important to everyone. Getting affordable health insurance has been a major issue for many Americans. As the population ages with Baby Boomers entering old age, the costs to society are greater and greater. In 2010 lawmakers began to deal with the fact that around 46 million Americans had no health insurance.
