Jones' suicide attempt would be considered the beginning of his disorder. This event may even have triggered the disorder. He has experienced many “deaths” in his life. These “deaths” could have simply been people leaving his life, but they all affected him the same way. Biological theorists would say that his disorder could be due to genetics. However, since it is not known whether anyone in his family suffered from bipolar disorder, it would be impossible to determine. Her disorder may also be due to a chemical imbalance in the brain and hormonal and immune changes (Bipolar Caregivers, 2013). Psychodynamic theorists would agree that Mr. Jones' disorder is caused by his ego using mania to cover up his depression. His brain is in a constant battle between his ego and his id. This can be demonstrated by the observation that irritability and crying episodes may be present during high levels of bipolar disorder (Sammons). Cognitive therapists would also explain that Mr. Jones's manic symptoms are the result of his mind's attempt to cover up his depressive symptoms. However, they would argue that “ego” and “id” do not exist
