I heard it mostly from med-proponents though. Been even told it does not matter I am doing good, because you know, kindling effect. And because your willpower and whatnot according to some cannot do anything to you if you have bipolar.
I could subscribe to it as a psychological theory. If you don't grasp your life, it gets hard to get back on the track the further you fallen (it makes sense too). But medical model? I pass on that one.
