A mood disorder is defined as “a mental health class that health professionals use to broadly describe all types of depression and bipolar disorders” (Hawkins, 2017). There are different types of mood disorders and some of the most common mood disorders are bipolar disorder, depression, substance induced, and dysthymia. In regards to depression there a few different types which two of them being unipolar and bipolar. In which some of the signs and symptoms will be the same when diagnosis depression the only difference is the treatment that is recommended by a physician to treat the mood disorder. The difference is also the stage of depression that you are diagnosed to be in with unipolar being always a downer and the person never seems to have so up times. This stage of depression seems to be more severe but without mania.

  Mood disorder is described as a psychological disorder that is the rise and fall of an individual’s mood. This can include anxiety, depression and/or bipolar disorder. There are two moods that are consistent in mood disorders. Those are mania and depression. Mania is feelings and emotions that are extremely intense and unrealistic. It is intense euphoria and excitement. Depression is feelings of sadness and dejection. Those that experience mood disorders, may only experience them in waves or episodes. These disorders are not always feelings that happen daily. Person can feel happy and satisfied one day, and the next day can be completely down for no apparent reason.

           Unipolar depressive disorder, when a person only experiences depressive episodes. Bipolar disorder is when a person experiences both manic and depressive episodes.
