Does your relationship with money change with your mood?

Hi everyone 💙

Living with bipolar disorder can affect more than mood and energy.

During mania or hypomania, some people may feel more confident, impulsive or willing to take risks. That can sometimes show up in everyday decisions, including shopping and spending money.

Something that feels completely reasonable in the moment may look very different once your mood changes.

💬 We’d love to hear from you:

• Do you notice your spending habits changing when your mood is elevated?
• Have you ever regretted purchases made during hypomania or mania?
• Have you found ways to put limits in place when you notice early warning signs?
• Is money something you find difficult to discuss with people around you?

These experiences can be difficult to talk about, but others may recognise themselves in them too.

What helps you stay in control of spending when your mood starts to change?
