When you have bipolar disorder, it is very important to see your doctor on a regular basis, which means being sure to
keep all your appointments.
It can be hard to stay motivated to see your doctor when you feel well, but this may actually be the most important time you have together. If your doctor gets to know you when you are well, they will have an easier time noticing when you don't seem yourself, perhaps indicating a change in mood or behavior that needs to be addressed.
In addition, if you take the time to get to know your doctor when you are well, then you will feel more comfortable acknowledging when you don't feel quite right, giving you the best chance of treating an episode of mania or depression before it gets out of hand.
