I would think that you could get back on SSDI again, if you qualify. However, if you've been working full time off of it for a while, the application may need to be from scratch. Your chances again certainly depend on your condition, and maybe other factors.

I don't know for sure, but I would think having a severe history of illness (and former disability) would help rather than harm for a new application. For example, a history of work instability and/or multiple hospitalizations would be a stronger factor, than say being "freshly bipolar" with no such history.
