Do you consider your Bipolar disorder to be a life threatening illness?
This came up in my support group this week. Some of us definitely felt it is a life threatening illness, whereas others considered it more of a life "ruining" illness.
What about once you are treated? Do you still think it is life threatening or ruining then, or just a moderate obstacle?
It is life threatening especially during episodes of mania (erratic behaviour can lead to risky situations and potentially death) and depression (death by suicide). I would say it becomes less threatening when treated, but there is still a significant risk
