Social Rhythm Therapy

The unchecked mood swings that affect Bipolar patients also disrupt their internal “biological clocks” that regulate activities such as wakefulness, hunger, and other circadian processes.

Social Rhythm Therapy, which is often used in combination with Interpersonal Therapy, aims to reset these clocks by establishing fixed routines for patients with Bipolar disorder. Consistent routines allow patients to control and manage their moods better, helping them reduce unwanted manic or depressive cycles.
