what is the prognosis of bipolar depression when detected in a young individual say at 2o yrs.?Whether the individual can focus on study during treatment ?What are the chances of relapse while on treatment?Any latest major brakthru for this disease as far as treatment is concerned?
Hi, The options available to treat the bipolar disease are many these days.  The prognosis to manage this problem in a student who is 20 years of age is excellent in my opinion and if the individual were working closely with a counselor or therapist as well as a doctor I believe there is a very good chance that relapses can be significantly minimized, possibly avoided if vigilance is maintained at a high level by both patient and doctor.  There are very good treatments and approaches available both pharmacologically and non-pharmacologically. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
