Mood changes are traditionally a healthy part of the human experience. Positive experiences are paired with happiness and hopefulness and moments of loss and failure are often paired with sadness. However, when struggling with a mood disorder, one’s mood often does not reflect the circumstances of his or her reality. Mood Disorders have the disruptive characteristics of affecting one’s daily activities for the worse. Those with a Mood Disorder may see impairments in their relationships, ability to succeed at school or in the workplace, and a pervasive sense of emotional dysregulation. Mood disorders remain one of the most prevalent mental health issues in the United States and affect nearly 20% of the general population on any given day.
