It wasn’t until the early 1950s that bipolar disorder was fully recognized as a mental disorder of its own. Prior to that, bipolar disorder had always been confused with mental disorders like schizophrenia or psychosis. In bphope.com, it is stated that "German psychiatrist Karl Leonhard and colleagues initiated the classification system that led to the term “bipolar,” differentiating between unipolar and bipolar depression."

Unconsciously In Love

Last week, we were discussing about how our mind (especially our unconscious mind) works . In this post, we're going to talk about the connection between our unconscious mind, social interaction, and love. I have always been fascinated by science and psychology, so researching for this was like leaving a kid in a candy store for me. I can only hope that you guys will be as excited about this as I am, but then again, aren't we all excited about love? Well, your brain might has something to do with that excitement. 

The Unconscious Mind

One of my friends asked me the other day if I could cover the topic of the unconscious mind because she'd been having this strange recurring dream. Having always been interested in psychology (and a huge fan of Dr. Phil), I told her I could most certainly do that. As I indulged in the research for this topic, I got the chance to uncover as well as absorb fascinating new information about how our brain works. As I'm writing this post at this moment, it still baffles me how limited our conscious minds are -- how much we're actually missing. In addition to that, I never thought about how our unconscious mind is directed connected to falling in love. Well, today, we're going to unveil all of that.
