Can anyone give me a thesis statement for bipolar disorder?

Question

I'm currently working on an essay about bipolar disorder and would like to conclude my introduction with a strong thesis statement. Could someone assist me with that? My teacher has specified that I should focus on the manic and depressive phases of the disorder. Additionally, I need some reliable references for my research. If anyone has credible sources to suggest, I would greatly appreciate it. Please note that I won't be using Wikipedia, as my teachers do not consider it a valid reference due to its open-edit nature. Thank you!

You can do a google search for &ldquo;suicide rate&rdquo; and &ldquo;bipolar.&rdquo;  You will find that about 25% of people with bipolar commit suicide, and 50% or so attempt.  You could mention that, &ldquo;Bipolar is a serious medical condition, which if not managed properly can end in death.  Twenty-five percent of individuals suffering from bipolar disorder end their life, while half attempt it at some point in their life.  With treatment, many people with this disorder can live productive lives.  You could also look up the success of treatment or some famous people that have bipolar.  Another possibility is to stress how this is a medical condition, and that if you find out someone has this disorder you should support them.

Yes Holly is confused. It used to be called manic depression, then bipolar and now bipolar spectrum. It’s all various words referring to the same mood disorder.

Thesis statement could be…

Bipolar is a complicated psychiatric condition where individuals swing between suicidal depression and elevated mania.

There are tons of books, magazine articles etc. on the topic. I think you should find your own references.

Bipolar and manic/depressant are, in my experience with others diagnosed with them, very different diagnosis. Bipolar is significantly more then the concept of two polar opposite emotional states. I recommend starting research by looking up bipolar symptom checklists. Good luck with your essay.
