Homeopathy Medicine for Mood Disorder

A mood disorder is a type of mental health issue that primarily affects a person’s emotional state and is characterized by prolonged extremes of happiness, sadness, or both.

When a person is in a given situation, it is common for their mood to change; however, in order to be diagnosed with a mood disorder, symptoms must persist for at least a few weeks. Mood disorders can affect a person’s ability to deal with daily tasks like work or school and can change their behavior.

Types.

Depression (major or clinical depression).Grief or sadness is a typical reaction to a traumatic life event or crisis, such as the death of a spouse or family member, loss of a job, or a serious illness. However, clinical or major depression is when the symptoms persist even after stressful events have passed or there is no apparent cause.

Depression comes in a number of different forms, and each type has a different set of symptoms.

• Postpartum depression (peripartum depression) – Pregnant women or new mothers may experience this type of depression.
• Persistent depressive disorder (dysthymia) –The symptoms of this type of chronic depression, which can last for at least two years, may occasionally become milder over time.
• Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) –Winter seasonal affective disorder (SAD) symptoms may resemble those of a major depressive episode and may start in the late autumn or early winter and last until spring or summer. Less frequently, SAD episodes may also start in the late spring or summer. SAD episodes typically start in the late autumn or early winter and last until spring or summer.
• Psychotic depression –This is a type of severe depression accompanied by psychotic episodes that may include upsetting or disturbing episodes with a theme, such as hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that others do not) or delusions (having fixed but false beliefs).

Depression related to a medical condition, medication, or substance abuse

Bipolar disorder (manic-depressive disorder).Depressive episodes alternate with manic episodes or mania; during a manic episode, a person may feel elated, but they may also feel irritable or have increased levels of activity. Bipolar disorder is characterized by mood swings from periods of depression to mania. When a person experiences a low mood, symptoms may resemble those of a clinical depression.

Bipolar disorder can be divided into four categories.

• Bipolar I –This is the most severe type; manic episodes typically last at least seven days or may be severe enough to necessitate hospitalization; depressive episodes also frequently last at least two weeks; and occasionally, symptoms of both mania and depression coexist.
• Bipolar II disorder –A person with bipolar II disorder experiences hypomania, a milder form of mania, which is less intense and disruptive than manic episodes. Hypomanic periods are not as intense or disruptive as manic episodes. Cycles of depression similar to those of bipolar I are caused by this disorder. Hospitalization is typically not necessary.
• Cyclothymia disorder (cyclothymia)People with cyclothymia have continuous, irregular mood swings, which can range from mild to moderate emotional “highs” to mild to moderate “lows,” for extended periods of time. Additionally, changes in mood can happen quickly and at any time, and there are only brief periods of normal mood. Adults must have symptoms for at least two years before being diagnosed with cyclothymia.
• “Other” or “unspecified” bipolar disorder –These individuals still experience significant, abnormal changes in mood despite the fact that their symptoms do not fit the description of one of the other types of bipolar disorder.

Other mood disorders

• Premenstrual dysphoric disorderResearchers believe that the hormonal changes associated with the menstrual cycle are the cause of this particular mood disorder, which manifests itself seven to ten days prior to menstruation and disappears a few days after the start of the menstrual period.
• Intermittent explosive disorder –The behavioral outbursts in someone with intermittent explosive disorder are out of proportion to the situation, and it is a less common mood disorder characterized by episodes of unjustified anger, also known as “flying into a rage for no reason.”

Causes

Depending on the type of disorder, there could be a number of underlying causes, including genetic, biological, environmental, and other influences.

Risk factors include:

• Family history
• A previous mood disorder diagnosis
• Depression may be caused by trauma, stress, or significant changes in one’s life.
• Depression has been associated with serious illnesses like cancer, diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, heart disease, and Parkinson’s due to physical illness or the use of specific medications.
• Bipolar disorder and the structure and function of the brain
