As with other lifelong illnesses, bipolar disorder requires finding the right treatment and sticking with it. You’ll also need to be on the lookout for any changes in your condition. This way, you can work with your healthcare providers to make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan to maintain control over your condition. To help you evaluate how well your bipolar management plan is working — and whether you may need to make a few changes — we created three assessments that examine how much your condition is impacting your quality of life; whether your symptoms are under control; and whether your current treatment plan is still effective. Remember that while bipolar disorder is a long-term condition, you can take control and work with your doctor to manage your condition. With the right treatment and psychotherapy, you can live a healthy and active life.
