AWARENESS CAMPAIGN
On March 30, there is a movement called "World Bipolar Day" to raise awareness of the
condition. This day was established in order to reduce the societal stigma associated
with bipolar illness. Additionally, it's so that others may comprehend what bipolar
disorder is and how it impacts people. In order to help the world understand bipolar
disorder, this day also gives those who have it the chance to talk openly about their
issues. People wear a ribbon with black and white stripes on this day to represent the
highs of mania and the lows of depression. A green ribbon, which is the true colour that
represents bipolar illness, can also be worn. Despite the annual Bipolar awareness
campaign, there are still many individuals in the globe who are unaware about this
illness and other disorders. We had thought that World Bipolar Day would have more of
an impact on society, but it is not a very popular holiday or attraction for people. This is
why we need to work even harder to increase knowledge of and foster favourable public
perceptions about bipolar illness!

IMPORTANCE
Bipolar mood disorder is a serious condition that must
not be ignored. Physical therapists are increasingly
being called upon to offer young children high-quality
evaluation and care. This is so that the disorder's
chances of completely developing are reduced by early
care. In comparison to the general population, bipolar
patients have mortality rates that are three times
higher (35% mortality rates).
