Celebrating World Bipolar Day at SANE and how you can get involved

Did you know 1.3% of Australians are living with bipolar disorder? 

Each year on World Bipolar Day, SANE celebrates the achievements and voices of people living with bipolar, encouraging everyone to learn more and reduce stigma for people with this diagnosis. 

Whether you're living with bipolar, or care about someone who is, take a look at the many ways you can join the discussion on World Bipolar Day 2021, taking place Tuesday 30 March.
