Psychiatric Times features monthly themes that speak to various aspects of psychiatry and issues relevant to psychiatric clinicians. Our February 2026 theme focuses on bipolar disorder. Approximately 1 in 200 individuals live with bipolar disorder worldwide. Many patients with bipolar disorder are misdiagnosed, untreated, or experience stigma.1
Suicide risk in bipolar disorder is significantly higher than in the general population; how do you assess risk of suicide in your patients? How do you address comorbid disorders in patients with bipolar disorder? Do you have practice tips to offer your fellow mental health clinicians? Have you experienced a patient case that could help others learn?
If you have something you want to share, whether that’s an article, case study example, or CME article, let us know! Write to us now at PTEditor@mmhgroup.com to be featured in our February content series and potentially in a future Special Report/print issue.
