Children Bipolar Disorder
Introduction
Bipolar disorder, also known as manic depression, is a psychological condition with
extreme hypomania or mania in high moods based on the emotional status and depression in low
mood swings (Shain, 2014). The biggest underlying problem with bipolar disorder is that it's a
life long condition though its occurrence is usually in episodes. Historically, bipolar disorder was
thought to be rare among children and adolescent (Shain, 2014). Over the years, in the
contemporary United Kingdom society, there has been a tremendous increase in bipolar among
children, according to the NICE report (NICE, 2014). A meta-analysis that has been conducted
recently shows that the occurrence of these mental conditions has been improving with
approximately 1.8 per cent annually (NICE, 2014). However, there has been a problem with the
diagnostic criteria currently in place among young children, more particularly less than ten years
which has remained unclear regardless of the recent development in ideologies, research and
technologies (Rizvi, Ong & Youngstrom, 2014). With this regard, this paper's main purpose
would be to explore bipolar disorder in children in the United Kingdom and the interventions
strategies that are provided for this condition.
Development of Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar symptoms identification is a recent development. The mental health problem has
its roots in ancient Greece by Aretaeus, a Greek physician of Cappadocia. He combined the two
primary symptoms, depression as melancholia and mania, as the earliest discoverable disorders
(Rizvi, Ong & Youngstrom, 2014). Aretaeus depicted that melancholic individuals have episodes
where they are thrilled while other times, they are unfortunate with no reason (Renk et al., 2014).
Though he never draws the difference between mania and melancholia, Theophile Bonet, during
