Bipolar Affective Disorder Test

This test is recommended for people who experience regular episodes of unexplained mood changes, both positive and negative, in their lives.

Bipolar affective disorder (abbr. BAD , formerly manic-depressive psychosis or MDP) is a mental illness that manifests itself in the form of alternating mood background: from excellent / super excellent (hypomania / mania phase) to reduced (depressive phase). The duration and frequency of phase alternation can vary from daily fluctuations to fluctuations throughout the year.

This test is a Russian version for detecting hypomanic conditions, the original name is HCL-32 (Hypomania Checklist) .
Commonly used to detect BAD type II among patients with a current diagnosis of RDD (recurrent depressive disorder).

I remind you: this disease is clearly a pathology, only a psychiatrist or psychotherapist can deal with diagnosis and treatment.
