antidep drugs are risky, sometimes provoke switch from depression to mania
antipsychotic drugs can be helpful but also produce unpleasant side effects

assume they relieve bipolar because of effect they have in common
one effect is decrease number of AMPA type glutamate receptors in hippo
DU ET AL 2008
excessive flatmate activity is responsibly for some aspects of mania
block synthesis of brain chemical called arachidonic acid
produced during brain inflammation
effects are counteracted by omega-3
epidemiological studies say people who eat 1 pound of seafood per week have decreased risk of bipolar disorder
bipolar patients show increased expression of genes associated with inflammation
getting people to maintain a consistent sleeping schedule in dark, quiet rooms reduces intensity of mood swings
