Bipolar disorder is a long-term condition marked by repeated episodes of illness, yet it is often diagnosed late and managed reactively. Many people experience warning signs months or years before diagnosis or relapse, but current health systems lack reliable ways to detect these early changes. As a result, opportunities for timely support are frequently missed. This study brings together long-term health records, cohort data, and biological information to understand how risk for bipolar disorder develops and changes over time. The goal is to support earlier recognition, more informed care, and a shift toward prevention and proactive monitoring in real-world healthcare settings.
