Manic depression is has some things in common with normal depression but it has some differences that make treating it like normal depression DEADLY!

When someone is Depression Manic they their brain has 2 problems. And treating 1 incorrectly can make the other one kill you.

This site has some great videos that explain Manic Depression in a very easy to understand yet medically accurate way.

Let me explain depression first.

Depression is where you brain drops into a repair state. For healthy happy people this happens all the time but they are normally only depressed for a few minutes at a time and it never becomes painful.

It is like trying to work in your car. Would you work on your car with the motor running. Of course not. Well your brain needs to shut down to repair itself. BUT...

You need to use your brain all the time so when it shuts down for too long it causes problems. Just like if you stay in bed too long you will get bed sores. We are designed to be active.

When people have problems with depression it is simply that their brains get STUCK in the repair state for too long.

Now with manic depressive people their brains can get stuck in either the repair state or stuck OUT OF the repair state. This is what causes the mania. When you brain can not drop down to repair itself it is like driving a car 90 miles per hour with no oil.

You know what I am taking about that crazy out of control feeling. Some people who are manic depressive actually never noticed the mania phaze and this is especially dangerous.

Anti-depressants cause brain damage. LOTS of brain damage because they do not let you brain drop into a repair state. This is why people on anti-depressants tend to get loopier and loopier till they snap.

Now take someone whose brain already has trouble dropping into the repair cycle and then add in anti-depressants and it is like throwing gasoline on a fire. It causes massive brain damage very quickly.

OK. Lithium does help peoples with manic depression but it is poisonous and the amount it takes to KILL YOU is barely more then the amount it takes to level out manic depression.

So what can you do about it if you are depressed. Simple. If you are just depressed then all you have to do is switch your brain from the repair state into the running state.

If you have manic depression then you need to learn 1 more thing. You need to learn to drop your brain INTO the repair state at will.

Easy as pie.
