A member asked:
Im 23 and have recently been diagnosed with bipolar rapid cycling. i dont remember being this bad 2 or 3 years ago does bipolar worsen with age?

Untreated bipolar: gets worse. As you get older it interferes with relationships, work school, you name it. So, I guess you could say it gets worse with age. I think it is more a matter of getting worse without good medication management and ongoing psychotherapy. Make sure you stay connected to your therapeutic team and keep the disease under the best control possible. Feel free to ask additional questions.
