A message from Stephen Fry


Hello there,

I would like to encourage you to join in with some adventurous, exciting and imaginative plans which aim to help improve our understanding and improvement treatment of bipolar disorder.

My own history of mania and depression has been a background to more than thirty years of my life: I made two BBC2 documentaries on the subject broadcast in September 2006, a remarkable experience which has reinforced in my mind the prevalence of the condition and the urgent need for some imaginative thinking in all sectors.

So do participate in the international survey, and at the end, consider signing up to the separate “Bipolar In-Touch” network, so that you can be kept in touch about what is going on. It is a very important place to start and will also help furnish us with information that presently we just don’t have. It will also make it easier both to attract further funding for research into the causes and treatment of bipolar disorder and to assist with the setting up of new education and treatment programs.It would be a great starting point as we all begin to work together on this important problem.

It’s time for a Great Leap Forward in funding, prioritisation, public understanding and knowledge. Do join us!

Best wishes,



Partner Organisations: Equilibrium- the Bipolar Foundation (International), MDF The Bipolar Organisation (UK), The Bipolar Fellowship-Scotland, Mood Disorders Society of Canada, Oxford University and growing...
