Patient discussion about Divide and rule.

Q. How does the time of high and low usually divide in bipolar? How long are the high times supposed to last and should the low times last more or less the same? how much time is there usually in between?

A. Some people rapid cycle (which means that the person can cycle through both moods up to multiple times a day) others experience long cycles lasting days, weeks, months and at times years. Like Joseph said there are no rules! Is your friend cycling? I hope he is doing okay!
