So bipolar disorder is one of those disorders that is skyrocketing in prevalence.
Why is that?
I think that with all of them, with all of the different diagnostic labels, there's so much disagreement about why is that.
It's such a critical question and an important question.
And I just want to say for the record, I fully understand that there are different explanations.
And the explanations fall into kind of three categories, I would say.
Category one, we're just better at recognizing it and diagnosing it.

Everybody's talking about mental health today.
We've got On Purpose podcast talking about mental health.
And so, of course, everybody is just getting diagnosed and getting the treatment they need.
But the rates can't possibly really be increasing, especially with something like bipolar, because many in the field believe it's genetic.
And that wouldn't change in prevalence over such a short period of time.
The second category is disbelief.

Everybody loves to have a label.
They all want to be special.
