Cyclothymia - what does this mean

Cyclothymia is a mild form of bipolar disorder that is characterized by periods of mild depression and hypomania (periods of elevated moods and energy). these periods may last for weeks or months and can be accompanied by changes in sleep, appetite, energy levels, and concentration.

What happens during the disease - cyclothymia

Cyclothymia is a mood disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of hypomania and mild depression. it is believed to be caused by an imbalance in the brain's neurotransmitters, such as serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, leading to erratic changes in mood, energy, and behavior. stressful life events, such as trauma, abuse, or major life changes, may also play a role in the development of cyclothymia.
