Bipolar Disorder Treatment in Barcelona

What is Bipolar Disorder and how can it be treated?

Bipolar disorder is a mental health disorder characterized by intense mood swings, alternating between episodes of mania or hypomania and phases of profound depression. These fluctuations can significantly affect emotional stability, cognitive performance, and social and family life, hampering relationships and the ability to maintain a stable routine.

During manic or hypomanic phases, euphoria, hyperactivity, decreased need for sleep, and impulsive behavior may occur, while during depressive episodes, intense sadness, apathy, hopelessness, and fatigue predominate. These changes, which can last for days, weeks, or months, can have a significant impact on quality of life.

Psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, in a specialized clinical setting, has established itself as an innovative treatment that can help reduce the intensity of depressive episodes, improve emotional regulation, and provide a greater sense of stability. It may represent a promising therapeutic option for those seeking additional support beyond conventional treatments for managing bipolar disorder.

Our therapeutic approach to Bipolar Disorder

Treating bipolar disorder with the psychedelic medication we use allows for modulation of the glutamatergic system, promoting neuroplasticity and the reorganization of brain circuits that regulate mood. This neurobiological action facilitates greater cognitive flexibility and reduces ruminative thought patterns, especially during depressive episodes. Modulation of the default mode network (DMN) promotes a broader view of one’s life experience.

In parallel, psychotherapeutic support allows for safe integration of what was experienced during the sessions, working on recognizing early signs of phase change, preventing relapse, and strengthening emotional self-regulation. The protocol is always applied individually and with close monitoring, recognizing the unique complexity of bipolar disorder and prioritizing clinical safety at every stage of the process.
