MyDepressionTeam has been supporting people with depression and mental health conditions like bipolar disorder for several years now. The community has grown to more than 150,000 members who understand what it's like to live with conditions like bipolar 1 and anxiety disorder.

Living with both bipolar 1 and anxiety can be challenging. Research shows that around 34 percent of people with bipolar 1 disorder will develop an anxiety disorder, and having both conditions together can make symptoms more difficult to manage.

The good news is that both conditions can be effectively treated with:
* Medications (mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, and sometimes SSRIs)
* Psychotherapy like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
* Lifestyle changes including regular sleep schedules, exercise, and stress management
* Learning coping skills to recognize early warning signs

You're in a community where others truly understand the experience of managing both conditions together.
