Bipolar disorder is a potentially debilitating illness that causes a person’s mood to swing from excessively “high” and/or irritable to sad and hopeless, with periods of a normal mood in between. With proper diagnosis and care, people can and do manage their illnesses and recover their lives.
To raise awareness about this condition, Mental Health America launched a nationwide public service announcement campaign titled “Bipolar Disorder: Do You Know It?”
This highly successful campaign helped to empower patients, families and friends to recognize the signs and symptoms of bipolar disorder and to encourage them to seek information, as well as an accurate diagnosis and treatment for the illness.
The campaign included print, radio and TV spots distributed nationally and through local affiliate chapters.
