Bipolar disorder is a mental illness that impacts up to 5% of the population of the U.S. Those affected may experience the highest of highs and the most devastating of lows.
Living with bipolar disorder isn’t easy. Many of those who suffer do so alone, out of fear or shame.
Bipolar disorder can impact family members, friends and colleagues as much as the person with the disorder. It can interfere with work, relationships, and careers. That’s why people with bipolar disorder have rates of suicide that are up to 20 times higher than the general population.
That’s no laughing matter.
That’s why, with every 99-cent Bipolar Bear application sold, we donate 30% of net proceeds to a non-profit organization working with bipolar disorder and improving the lives of people living with it.
