Can Drugs Cause Bipolar Disorder?
Bipolar disorder is a mental illness characterized by extreme changes in mood and energy levels. It can be a debilitating condition, causing those with the disorder to experience severe bouts of depression, as well as intense periods of mania or hypomania. Recent studies have found that certain drugs and medications may trigger manic episodes in people who are already at risk of developing bipolar disorder. Substance use can also worsen the symptoms of those who have this condition.
