abstract="OBJECTIVE: D. Maria I, queen of Portugal, was the mother of João VI and grandmother of Pedro IV of Portugal and I of Brazil. She became the first monarch of Brazil, where she became known as &quot;Maria, the madwoman&quot;. We aimed to try to identify the mental disorder she suffered from. <br><br>METHODS: We con-ducted a review of biographies about D. Maria I and scientific articles that discussed her case. <br><br>RESULTS: The sparse information about her mental illness strongly indicates that she had several depressive and manic episodes, which were accompanied by psychotic symptoms. <br><br>CONCLUSION: Her probable psychiatric diagnosis is that of bipolar disorder. © 2021, Editora Cientifica Nacional Ltda.
