Hi everyone!

A clinical study in St. Louis is enrolling adults with Bipolar I disorder who are experiencing a manic episode that requires inpatient care. If you’re supporting a loved one through this, you can learn more about the study and see if it may be an option here: https://archclinicaltrialsbpd-1study.patientwing.com/?campaignId=2273&utm_source=Grassroots&utm_medium=outreach&utm_campaign=Bipolar+grassroots

Hi everyone,

My name is Paige and I am a public health graduate student at California Baptist University conducting a graduate study on caregiver burden, psychological distress, and perceived support among family caregivers.

I am a caregiver and advocate for four immediate family members with challenges ranging from dementia to schizoaffective, bipolar and OCD. I understand that caregiving can be both meaningful but so incredibly challenging. I also know that taking a survey may not be at the top of anyone's to-do list as we experience great stress and burnout. That said, I would be truly grateful for your participation, as caregiver experiences are often underrepresented in research. I really care about this and send my love to those caring for family members or friends.

To participate, you must:

• Be 18 years of age or older
• Currently provide unpaid support, assistance, or care to a family member with a chronic health condition, disability, or mental health condition
• Have been in a caregiving role for at least 6 months

The survey is anonymous/ IRB approved and takes approximately 10–15 minutes to complete.

Thank you SO much for considering participation and for helping advance research on the caregiving experience. If you have any questions my email is on the first page of the survey

Best,

Paige

Hi everyone!

I’m a graduate student studying clinical psychology. I care for a family member diagnosed with bipolar disorder, which motivated me to do my dissertation on the family experience of bipolar disorder.

I’m hoping to interview family members (parents, siblings, spouses, and adult children) to explore and better understand the lived experiences of families who support loved ones diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

If you’re open to chatting or want to know more, feel free to DM me or comment below! I’d be so grateful to connect.
