Finally some answers! I started participating in this study at the beginning in 2008.

Thanks so much for the link to the article! An interesting read and shows that there isn't a single cause.

And each of us with bipolar has a different experience with it!

Yet in this Forum we can share our experiences and find many areas of common ground that can help us cope!

I wish I could find the whole study itself online. This article I linked to above was from January this year! Nobody told me that they had any information on the study yet.

From the article:

“There are many routes to this disease, and many routes through it,” says Melvin McInnis, M.D., lead author of the new paper and head of the program based at the U-M Depression Center. “We have found that there are many biological mechanisms which drive the disease, and many interactive external influences on it. All of these elements combine to affect the disease as patients experience it.”

Thank you for that link, too. The video is informative. I'm so pleased to know that research on BD is being done.

I feel so comfortable on this board, it's no wonder.
