Episode#3 Living with Bipolar Disorder

Harper & Dr. Kori Johnson enter an open conversation on the ups and downs of living with bipolar disorder, specifically type 2. Bipolar type 2 is a condition that causes unusual shifts in mood, energy, activity levels and the ability to carry out day-to-day tasks. Bipolar II disorder is diagnosed when a person experiences a pattern of depressive episodes and hypomanic episodes, but not the full-blown manic episodes found in bipolar I disorder. However, some Bipolar II patients may have longer lasting and more severe bouts of depression.
