Bipolar disorder is a common mental illness in the 21st century. Bipolar disorder has caused great harm to patients due to its sudden, incurable and huge negative impact on patients' lives, such as inability to work and study normally and inability to take care of basic daily life. In the statistics, the number of suicides caused by bipolar disorder has reached 3% of the total patients, becoming a problem that cannot be ignored in today's society. At present, the treatment of bipolar disorder mainly relies on drug therapy and psychological counseling. Medication refers to the use of antidepressant drugs such as fluoxetine to treat depressive mood, while the use of depressant drugs to treat mania. While enjoying the effects of the drug, the patient's dependence on the drug cannot be ignored. In addition, the limitations of prescribing separate drugs for depression and mania still need to be addressed. Patients need a faster acting, more convenient, more integrated control of the treatment equipment for the overall control of bipolar disorder patients. BCI, as a new technology, has the ability to directly regulate brain activity and then affect human behavior. In the current database of papers, there are very few articles using BCI to treat bipolar disorder, or even other psychiatric disorders. By exploring the function of BMI, this paper hopes to understand the mechanism behind bipolar disorder and explore the possibility of using BMI to treat bipolar disorder.
