    Bipolar Disorder Concept Map

    Uploaded by

    ashleydean
    This document discusses neuroanatomic circuits and biochemical factors that contribute to bipolar disorder. It notes that the disorder is associated with anatomical changes in limbic-thalamic-cortical and limbic-striatal-pallidal-cortical circuits, including the frontal and temporal lobes, hippocampus, prefrontal cortex, and basal ganglia. Genetics are also a factor, with interactions between multiple genes implicated. Bipolar disorder results in a variety of manifestations including depression, anxiety, phobias, suicidal behavior, substance abuse, and increased risk of physical health problems.
