Bipolar disorder: assessment and management

Support with work, education and money

If you have problems at school, college or work, or with money, which might be caused by your bipolar disorder, your care team may be able to help. If you agree, they can explain bipolar disorder, and how it affects you, to your employer, staff at your school or college or your financial lender.

Your care team should offer you support to help you find work or continue your education. You may be offered training or a place on an employment scheme.
