What Causes Bipolar Mania and How to Combat It

By understanding what is going on inside the brain during mania we can use self-help to develop effective self-help preventative and treatment solutions. In manic phases, there are excess levels of the neurotransmitter glutamate and overactivity in second-messenger signalling in the brain, in this vidio you will learn the two main things driving mania and how to combat them for both treatment and prevention. In manic phases, there are excess levels of the neurotransmitter glutamate and overactivity in second-messenger signalling in the brain. Excess glutamate is produced in the brain By the brains immune cells in response to inflammation and stress. There are many self-help things we can do to combat Both stress and sources of inflammation that cause the excessive build-up of glutamate the brain, and there are some things we can take to help reduce excess glutamate when it has built up. Reducing stress and some supplements can reduce the excessive 2nd messenger signalling within the nerve cells. Together these self-help techniques could minimise the recurrence of manias and help shorten them when they occur.
