What Is Bipolar Disorder?

Bipolar disorder is a chronic mental health condition that causes periods of high energy, called manic episodes, followed by profound depressive episodes. Most people with untreated bipolar disorder also experience hypomania, a less severe form of mania.
This mood disorder was once known as manic depression, a condition viewed as similar to severe mood swings. Today, mental health professionals have defined two main types of bipolar disorders:

  • Bipolar I is characterized by one or more manic episodes followed by hypomanic or depressive episodes. Sometimes, mania results in psychosis with bipolar I disorder.
  • Bipolar II is characterized by at least one period of major depression and at least one hypomanic episode. Bipolar II does not cause manic episodes.

Although there’s no cure for bipolar disorder, treatment programs can support successful recovery through a combination of individual therapy, medication management, and a healthy lifestyle.

“Ranch Creek Recovery saved my life. I came into RCR lost and broken, trying to get back on track in my life. As a result of this great team of counselors/psychologists, I’ve done more than restore my life; I’ve reached new goals and gained so many life skills that go far beyond just being sober. I love and appreciate all the staff. Know that if you have a willing heart to change, you’re in the right place.”

This is, by far, the best recovery center that I have experienced and heard of. I have been sober since I left Ranch Creek 3 1/2 years ago. They saved my life physically, as I was about a month away from being put onto the liver transplant list, they saved my marriage and relationship with our four children, and they saved me emotionally, as Dr. Dena was able to get some of my issues to a conclusion without me using alcohol to numb the pain. I do the work every single day, but I wouldn't be here without Ranch Creek. They definitely do it right!

This place has saved my life. The counselors, the nurses, the teachings (tools), and the environment were amazing. They were very patient, caring, and understanding. I learned so much there and gained a whole new self identity. After inpatient, they offered me an outpatient program that you can partake either in-person or via Zoom. That is so necessary and beneficial as well. I would suggest that anyone who wants and needs to get their life back or reshape who they are for the better to give this place a try. I live life through new eyes and with a healthy mind. You won't be disappointed.

This place is amazing for small group individual care. I've never seen a place that truly focuses on what you need and working with you to help you get there. They are not like other places that just get you sober and throw information at you. They truly care and want you to succeed. If you are in need of help to get sober this is your place.

Staff: 4.5/5Owner, Director, therapists, nurses, counselors, and support staff are all really great. I had no issues with anyone in particular. They are all there to help you however they can. I found that everyone advocated for my well being, were available when I needed them, and did their best to support me, check in on me, and make sure I was happy and comfortable.(why not 5/5? They have had a bunch of turnover and need to update their website with their newer staff members and qualifications. Additionally the Doctors they partner with were not as thorough as I would have wanted, and were kind of pushy with medications)Program: 4/5Small groups for the win! You get a lot of attention if you need it. This is a Holistic approach rehab. They do not focus on any 12 step programs. You have daily classes with different counselors, focusing on the science behind addiction, anger management, talk therapy, art therapy, equine therapy, nutrition, and much more. You have one-on-one sessions twice a week with a Licensed Therapist, and you have access to a gym daily, with a yoga instructor and trainer coming a few times a week. You also have a docent that comes once a week to do sound therapy, and you can learn techniques such as tapping. They have 2 doctors on staff you will have Zoom appointments with, and someone is always present to distribute morning, afternoon, and bedtime medication. You can also always grab whomever is on-call to talk through any issues or questions you have.(why not 5/5? Overall I found that there was too much down-time. I got bored and restless with that much free time and I craved more structure. Additionally I thought that the family Zoom sessions could have served as a stronger resource for loved ones)Location: 4/5Murrieta is a quiet, tranquil area, with mountain views, a lot of farmland, and very little public noise to distract you. When you do leave the house, you get to visit a small farm that is very close by to interact with horses and goats, etc. You also have an outing on Saturdays for a few hours that allows you as a group to get out of the house. The immediate area has all the basic stores and activities you would want, like target/walmart/grocery/7-11/etc as well as mini golf, bowling... You do need to decide as a group where you want to go because you have 1 chaperone and need to stay together at all times.(why not 5/5? There are 2 different houses located about 10 minutes away from each other. The Bass house advertised on the website is much nicer and larger than the Doreen house. During my time the clients staying at the Doreen house were shuttled over to the Bass house for our daily classes and sessions, not being able to utilize their own kitchen, rooms, and bathrooms during the day. I was also told by clients that the Doreen house was not as nice as the Bass House)Amenities: 4/5Pool - (I was there in the winter, so it was not heated and basically unusable, however, I did do some cold plunges just for the shock)Hot tub - available once a week on Friday eveningsYard - Large Grass Backyard and cement patio with tables and chairsGym - Available daily. TV for movies or music. Free weights, yoga mats, and a few outdated cardio machines that mostly worked.Kitchen - Large kitchen, multiple Fridges/Freezers, Huge pantry for preparing anything you want, ovens, microwave, toasters, dishwasher, outdoor gas grill, etc...Pool table, ping pong table, arts and crafts table, outdoor TV, Indoor TV, Computer, land-line house phone.Comfortable rooms and bathrooms with laundry access, and provided bedding and towels.(why not 5/5? I was disappointed that it wasn't clear that the pool and hot tub didn't have daily access as advertised, and that the gym was more outdated than described/pictured. They also could make some very inexpensive recreation investments like a basketball for their outdoor hoop, soccer ball, frisbees, croquet set, bocce, etc for their giant lawn to be used during the extensive downtime)

Ranch Creek Recovery is the best way to start your new healthy way of life. This program actually saved my life and my sanity. Their Holistic approach was amazing and I learned so much from my counselors and Dr. Dena. With only a limited number of participants in the house at one time, you are guaranteed the one on one time, as well as the group counseling they offer in a safe and comfortable setting. They make you aware that they truly care and are there to support you , listen to you, and most important to teach you. Teach you information about triggers, cognitive behavior and how to stay sober. They include therapy through others means such as Yoga, Meditation, working with Horses and even Physical Training. Ranch Creek makes sure when you leave you are good, Mind, Body and Soul. They have an excellent Intensive Outpatient Program (10) weeks that helps navigate your way back into life. A year ago (received my one year chip June 8, 2022) I was lost and a raging out of control alcoholic. I can proudly say today that I am not. I will always be an alcoholic with an addictive personality. But now I have tools, personal contacts and the faith in myself that I have never had before in my 9 years searching for sobriety. I often reflect back on my time at the Bass house. I am probably one of the few that actually stayed 60 days because I had so much to learn. My insurance did not cover all of the last days, but it was worth it to me, so I stayed. I am so grateful to so many of the staff, Jimmie, Christine, Jonathon, Dr. Dena and countless extended staff to name a few, because there were more. I would not be here to tell you it works, because without the treatment and the help I received, I alive today to tell my journey. If you are ready to face the truth, please give them a call. I promise if you are committed, you will never be the same as when you walked in. Thank you Ranch Creek Recovery.

Bipolar Symptoms

Hypomania occurs when these symptoms are present for at least 4 days. A manic episode interferes with daily function, while a hypomanic episode tends to be less disruptive.

Why Bipolar Disorder and Addiction Often Co-Occur

Like other mental health conditions, bipolar disorder commonly occurs along with substance abuse disorders. It’s one of the most common mental health issues to occur as a dual diagnosis with alcohol or drug abuse. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), about 30% to 50% of people with bipolar disorder experience substance abuse disorder at some point in their lives. Psychiatric Times reports that 42% of people with bipolar disorder experience alcohol abuse, and 20% develop cannabis use disorder. Researchers aren’t sure why this occurs, but some studies suggest a genetic link between substance abuse and mood disorders. Other research indicates that these mental health conditions may share a neurobiological pathway. People who have bipolar may also be more likely to use substances to reduce the impact of symptoms.

Comprehensive Addiction and Bipolar Disorder Treatment

Co-occurring substance use disorder and mental health diagnosis require a comprehensive, personalized approach, particularly for people with bipolar disorder. In addition to the higher rate of drug and alcohol abuse, this group has a higher risk of suicide and overdose. Substance abuse can also worsen the symptoms of bipolar disorder, extend the length of depressive episodes, and make it difficult to stick to the recommended treatment plan from your behavioral health care team.

According to the American Psychiatric Association, evidence-based therapies for bipolar disorder treatment include mood-stabilizing medication management and talk therapy, including cognitive behavioral therapy. Family-focused therapy and support group therapy can help the person learn healthy coping skills for symptoms of bipolar disorder and substance abuse.

Ranch Creek Recovery functions as a comprehensive bipolar disorder and addiction treatment center. Our treatment team has extensive training and experience caring for patients with co-occurring disorders of mental illness and substance abuse, including dual diagnosis involving bipolar disorder.

Detox

Your experience at our California rehab center starts with detox from drugs and alcohol. Medical supervision allows you to safely discontinue substance abuse and manage uncomfortable physical and emotional symptoms of withdrawal. Undergoing detoxification in a supportive setting such as our residential treatment center or partial hospitalization program improves the likelihood of successful long-term recovery. We offer subacute detox for substance abuse in conjunction with treatment for bipolar disorder, with a holistic approach that combines evidence-based treatments and experiential therapies.

Residential Program

Our residential treatment center in Murrieta holds certification from the American Society of Addiction Medicine and accreditation from the Joint Commission. You’ll receive the support you need during recovery from substance use disorders while receiving the intensive treatment you need to live a full, healthy life with bipolar disorder. We strive to create strong, trusting relationships with each treatment provider as you learn more about your dual diagnosis. You’ll attend sessions in dialectical behavior therapy, family therapy sessions, group therapy, and other treatment options designed to address the underlying issues of drug abuse, build a support network, and develop healthy coping skills.

Outpatient Rehab

You may want to consider outpatient rehab for bipolar disorder treatment and addiction if you’re not sure whether residential treatment is right for you. You may have work responsibilities or need to return home each evening to care for and spend time with your family members. Ranch Creek Recovery’s bipolar disorder treatment offered on an outpatient basis provides the same treatment types you’d receive at our residential treatment center. Some people with bipolar disorder attend outpatient rehab as part of their aftercare planning process once they graduate from an inpatient residential treatment center. You’ll meet with our treatment team three times a week, with both evening and weekend sessions available.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Research shows that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can effectively treat many mental health concerns, including mood disorders such as bipolar and substance use disorders. During this type of talk therapy, you’ll discuss your thoughts, emotions, and actions with a trained member of our treatment team. CBT helps you modify negative thought patterns and replace them with positive coping strategies. You’ll learn ways to manage the symptoms of bipolar disorder without resorting to substance abuse. The professional counselors at our treatment center specialize in addressing untreated bipolar disorder with evidence-based therapies like CBT.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Individuals who experience self-harm behavior or suicidal thoughts as symptoms of bipolar disorder benefit from dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). We use DBT and other evidence-based substance abuse treatment methods rather than the standard 12-step programs used at most treatment centers. DBT helps you learn skills to manage substance use and bipolar disorder, such as staying in the moment through mindfulness meditation and practicing emotional regulation. Many patients who have bipolar disorder attend DBT along with other treatments like CBT, family therapy, and support groups.
