Bipolar and other conditions

It’s common for people living with bipolar disorder to have a ‘dual diagnosis’ and live with another condition alongside bipolar.

It’s estimated that two thirds of people living with bipolar also have another mental health condition. This can complicate diagnosis and treatment, but understanding how these conditions affect each other is key to effective treatment and support.
