The impact of bipolar disorder upon work functioning: a qualitative analysis

Abstract: Patient outcome in BD has traditionally been determined by the assessment of clinical characteristics such as rates of relapse, hospitalization, or degree of symptom reduction. More recently, however, there has been increasing interest in expanding the assessment of outcome to include the measurement of indices such as functioning, a key facet of which relates to an individual's ability to work. The qualitative data obtained here highlights the often complex, varied and intermittent effects of an episodic cond… Show more

“…In the absence of institutional protection, funding and support, structural stigma directly circumscribes the opportunities of people with BD to improve their clinical, social and vocational functioning (Baldwin & Marcus, 2011;Boyd et al, 2011;Corrigan, Watson, Heyrman, et al, 2005;Krupa, 2007;Michalak et al, 2007;Michalak et al, 2011). Thus, people with BD may struggle to function in part because they attempt to negotiate a social environment that is not designed to accommodate their limitations (e.g.…”

“…Employers reported particular concerns as to the potential effects of emotional instability and atypical behavior on clients and co-workers, in addition to absenteeism, poor work performance, and an inability to tolerate stress (Schultz, Milner, Hanson, & Winter, 2011). People with BD therefore appear to suffer unemployment at least partly because employers refuse to hire or retain them (Michalak et al, 2007;Michalak et al, 2011). This notion is consistent with research findings in BD and MI generally indicating that stigma-related constructs are stronger predictors of employment outcomes than diagnosis, employment history or symptoms (Baldwin & Marcus, 2011;Krupa, 2011b;Larson et al, 2011;Michalak et al, 2007;Tse & Walsh, 2001;Tse, 2002;Tse & Yeats, 2002).…”
