While it is common for people to experience mood changes from time to time, bipolar disorder is much more severe. When someone has bipolar disorder (also known as manic depression), their mood shifts between periods of elevated or highly energized mood (manic or hypomanic episodes) and periods of depression.

During manic episodes, a person may feel unusually energetic, confident, and active, often needing less sleep. These periods can alternate with depressive phases that involve low mood, loss of interest in activities, changes in sleep or appetite, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating.

Living with bipolar disorder can be challenging, but many people learn ways to better understand and manage mood changes and build stability over time. Our online therapy program uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles to help people better understand their thoughts, behaviors, and emotional patterns. CBT is often used as a supportive approach alongside medical care. With guidance from a therapist, you can learn to recognize early warning signs of mood changes, develop healthier coping strategies, and build routines that support emotional stability. By increasing awareness of potential triggers and learning practical skills, many people find it easier to manage stress and maintain a more balanced daily life.

People experiencing symptoms of bipolar disorder should consult qualified healthcare professionals for proper evaluation and care.

"There are many things I enjoy about this service. I like that I can message my therapist anytime and they respond quickly. I love the price of the service. I love the structured program that it provides. The reading and worksheets have made me think and work really hard in ways I didn't expect. I'm only 3 weeks in. I'm excited for what's next."

"very very very helpful so far
asking the right questions
I've been really happy with OnlineTherapy.com. Getting matched with a therapist was quick and easy, and the interactions have genuinely helped me work through what I was struggling with. Being able to message my therapist and fit appointments around my schedule made a huge difference — it felt way more accessible than in-person therapy. Highly recommend if you're looking for flexible, quality support.""

"It took a few days to become adjusted to the website but once I became comfortable and familiar enough, I really started to enjoy it. I learned a lot within the first few days about “why” I think and react the way I do, and paying attention to my behavior has opened my eyes to so many things. I used to sit alone and wonder “what is wrong with me? Why do I think or act this way? What can I do to make it better?” I looked for answers in all the wrong places and couldn’t afford therapy out of pocket, until I was recommended to online-therapy. It’s affordable, I get to speak to my therapist more than I was previously, and everything is documented and recorded so I can always go back and review what I’ve already covered as a refresher. I didn’t enjoy therapy before, but this site has made it so much easier."
