TTM or trichotillomania is not automatically associated with Bipolar disorder. It is more associated with obsessive-compulsive disorder or OCD. However, it can be a comorbid condition that accompanies manic or depressive behavior during bipolar episodes. It is treated as a separate condition, but many treatments for bipolar disorder are similar for TTM so treating one might help treat the other.
