Yes, it was surrounded by swords....you know, I also thought of a bipolar syndrome...
I can really see how The Moon can represent mental illness. As some people have suggested Bipolar Disorder could be an option. Although I am getting the feeling that it might be something darker. The Moon is mysterious, and I can see it also as hiding something. I think as you mentioned it being surrounded by swords that could indicate something more pathological. Maybe this person is good at hiding their dark side and has hidden intentions? My thought is that it could indicate a possible psychopath. Being upside down to me, emphasizes more of the hidden/darker side.
I'm quite okay with suggesting mental illness in general when a card or combination of cards comes up that might suggest it, but I'd steer WAY, WAY CLEAR of doing anything like diagnosis of specific complaints unless you are qualified to do so.
Just curious about why Bipolar Disorder instead of another mental illness ? Any double card to suggest this ? I agree with Nisaba: depending on the surrounding cards it could be something much more serious...

Bloody Hell !!!! Worse than bipolar disorder ??? A psycopath ? An even darker side ? This is scary...but with other cards to support that, I wouldn't rule it out....
BD is serious but you can live with it. It is by no means the worst mental illness one could have. Others could easily come first such as schizophrenia or advanced dementia. I never thought about dark in that sense (a potential serial killer) but darker inside the psyche...
Well, I guess it would be difficult to say if he has dissociative identity disorder. Besides, illnesses do come combined in some people so only a psychiatrist could come up with a good diagnosis. I do know though, because my dad was bipolar, that BD is treatable. The clear signs are excessive energy with bouts of depression, suicide thoughts and often sleep disturbance.From what she told me after I mentioned his health, he goes from extreme calm and sweetness to sudden outbursts of anger all of a sudden, incredibly quick moodshifts that are impossible to forsee or comprehend what triggered them....kind of Dr Jeckill and Mr Hyde....split personality...?
