The idea behind WBD is to "bring world awareness to bipolar disorders and eliminate social stigma. Through international collaboration the goal of World Bipolar Day is to bring the world population information about bipolar disorders that will educate and improve sensitivity towards the illness" (International Society for Bipolar Disorders).
In honour of WBD, take a few minutes today to learn more about Bipolar Disorder and help spread awareness about this medical condition.
