    Bipolar disorder

    Explanation:

    Bipolar disorder, also referred as manic-depressive illness is a mental disorder in which a person experiences extreme mood swings that ranges from high to low, and vice versa, unusual shift in energy levels, etc

    Highs mark maniac period, whereas lows are depressive periods.

    Sometimes, these mood swings become mixed, and a person might feel both depressed and energetic at the same instant.
