bipolar
Significado: Relating to or characterised by two extremes; in psychiatry, a mental health condition marked by alternating episodes of mania and depression.
Bipolar disorder (formerly called manic depression) affects mood, energy, and activity levels. In broader usage, 'bipolar' can describe anything with two opposing poles or extremes, such as bipolar geopolitics. Care should be taken not to use the clinical term casually or as an adjective for ordinary mood changes, as this is considered insensitive.
