The Reality of Living With Bipolar Disorder
1-3% of the global population lives with bipolar disorder, impacting over 46 million people worldwide and thousands in Sweden. Despite its prevalence, effective management tools are still lacking.
The World Health Organization (WHO) ranks bipolar disorder as the 6th leading cause of disability globally, emphasizing its profound impact on individuals and societies.
Up to 60% of those diagnosed with bipolar disorder attempt suicide, and tragically, up to 20% die by suicide. These statistics highlight the urgent need for proactive care and intervention.
Bipolar disorder often begins during early adulthood, yet diagnosis is typically delayed by an average of six years, leaving patients vulnerable to years of unmanaged symptoms.
55% of individuals with bipolar disorder report failing to recognize their last episode until it caused significant harm, and 67% felt it was too late to stop the episode once they realized what was happening.
A single bipolar episode has a 3% risk of suicide, 28% chance of leading to severe self-harm, and often requires intensive intervention to manage.
Studies confirm that manic and depressive episodes are predictable and preventable with the right tools and early warning systems, reducing harm and improving long-term outcomes.
37% of individuals report that having someone recognize their symptoms early and reach out could have prevented escalation, underscoring the importance of timely support.
“I wish I had a guardian angel who could watch my behaviour so that my wife wouldn’t have to monitor me, it’s ruining our relationship.”
- Gabe Howard, Podcaster & Diagnosed Bipolar
“The problem with mood tracking is that when an episode is coming I stop tracking my mood, it’s a symptom of it’s own...”
- Elin Wigstedt, Diagnosed Bipolar.
