Welcome to Bipolar Hong Kong! 躁鬱香港

Bipolar Hong Kong is the HKSAR’s first peer-led bipolar support network!

We are a collective of Hong Kong professionals, students, writers & artists, the majority of whom live with bipolar disorder. Our mission: to fight the stigma and stereotypes attached to mental illness in Hong Kong (while also occasionally – and mischievously – reveling in them). Most importantly of all, we’re here to remind YOU that you’re not alone in your quest for innovative and creative ways of managing your mood disorder.

Whether you have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder or suspect you have bipolar disorder, whether you have Bipolar 1 or Bipolar 2, whether you hate your mood disorder or LOVE your mood disorder, we’re here to remind you that you are far from alone. In fact, you could be sharing your mood disorder with as many as 180,000 Hongkongers. (The rest are just nuts.)

Bipolar Hong Kong is your chance to unite with others like you, receive the peer support you need and deserve, and perhaps change the way you view your mood disorder forever, as well as the way others perceive you.

If you’re looking for fact-proven medical advice written by a leading shrink with a jumble of indecipherable letters after his/ her name, this site may not be for you. But if you’re looking for stories based on personal experiences, peer advice (including details of Hong Kong’s First Peer-Led Bipolar Support Group), creative inspiration & humour, join us!

After all, if we can’t share our experiences in a 100% confidential, supportive environment and occasionally laugh at ourselves, we’re probably screwed…
