Mood disorder

A mood disorder is a condition where the prevailing emotional mood is
distorted or inappropriate to the circumstances.

Mood disorders can be categorized as:

   * Manic depression including
        o Bipolar disorder (depression with mania or hypomania) and
        o Depression which includes conditions such as
             + Cyclothymia and
             + Dysthymia

Please note that many of the terms above overlap. The generally accepted
definitions of these terms can be found in the Diagnostic and Statistical
Manual of Mental Disorders.

Most psychiatrists believe that most mood disorders are related to manic
depression as part of a spectrum of mood disorders, even when the disorder
does not present the classic symptoms of bipolar disorder.

There are also forms of mood disorder which are specific to women, related
to physiological events such as pregnancy, birth or the menopause.
