History Of Bipolar Disorder

by: Bipolar Affective Disorder

Bipolar Affective Disorder, sometimes referred to as manic-depression, has existed since the beginning of recorded time. Aerates, in the second century A.D., first used the “mania” to describe patients who would “laugh, play, dance night and day, and sometimes go openly to the market crowned, as if victors in some contest of skill”. He noted that they would later appear “torpid, dull, and sorrowful”. However, it was Theophile Bonet in 1686 who first connected the two distinct ends of the mood spectrum and coined the term “manico-melancolicus”.
