Individuals with Bipolar disorder may have a reduced life expectancy compared to the general population, often estimated to be about 9 to 20 years shorter. This reduction in lifespan is frequently attributed to factors such as higher rates of suicide, co-occurring physical health conditions, and the impact of lifestyle choices. Access to effective treatment and support can significantly improve outcomes and quality of life for those with bipolar disorder. Overall, individual experiences can vary widely based on treatment, lifestyle, and support systems.
