Supporting someone through mood episodes is its own journey. Here’s where to start.
Bipolar disorder is a chronic brain condition, not a character flaw. Understanding the cycle of manic and depressive episodes helps you respond with empathy and patience.
Learn to spot the early signs of a manic or depressive episode — changes in sleep, energy, speech patterns, or spending habits — so you can encourage intervention early.
Many people with bipolar disorder stop taking medication when they feel better. Gently encouraging consistency with mood stabilizers is one of the most impactful things you can do.
Trailhead offers monthly family education groups via Zoom plus individual family sessions. Understanding the disorder as a family system improves outcomes for everyone.
Your mental health matters too. Consider individual therapy, NAMI support groups, or caregiver resources for families navigating a loved one’s bipolar disorder.
Work with your loved one during stable periods to create a written plan for what to do during a severe manic or depressive episode, including emergency contacts and preferred interventions.
It’s common for someone with bipolar disorder to resist help — especially during manic episodes. Here’s how to navigate that.
