Resumen
El trastorno bipolar es una psicopatología grave, crónica y altamente incapacitante para la vida del sujeto. Esto quiere decir que, en el brote maniaco la persona es capaz de dormir solo un par de horas al día, endeudarse o dejar su trabajo; en cambio, esa misma persona, durante el brote depresivo, puede encontrarse tan mal que se quede postrada en la cama. Considerado uno de los trastornos más graves de todas las enfermedades mentales, tiene la particularidad de que los sujetos afectados por este trastorno son más propensos a problemas de salud como obesidad, migrañas, tiroides, diabetes y/o cardiopatías. Se presenta un caso clínico de un paciente con trastorno bipolar. Tras una reevaluación del sujeto, se expone una propuesta hipotética de intervención que coordina el tratamiento farmacológico para estabilizar el estado de ánimo, junto a terapia psicológica multimodal en la que se prioriza la sintomatología más incapacitante para el sujeto.
