Bipolar disorder + substance use disorder
Setting
Private Beverly Hills manor
Overview
Bipolar disorder involves shifts between depressive and manic or hypomanic episodes, and it frequently co-occurs with substance use disorder — sometimes substances are used to manage mood swings, and sometimes substance use itself can trigger or mimic mood episodes. Integrated treatment stabilizes mood while addressing addiction at the same time.
Psychiatric mood evaluation
A licensed psychiatrist assesses your specific bipolar presentation and mood patterns alongside substance use history.
Mood stabilizer management
Mood-stabilizing medications are carefully managed and monitored for interactions with any addiction treatment.
Tracking mood patterns
Daily mood monitoring helps your clinical team adjust treatment in real time, rather than reacting after a crisis.
Evidence-based therapy
CBT and psychoeducation help you recognize early warning signs of mood episodes and respond before they escalate.
Who this program is for
This program is for anyone with bipolar I, bipolar II, or cyclothymic disorder who is also struggling with substance use — whether substances are used during manic, depressive, or stable periods. It's appropriate whether or not bipolar disorder has been formally diagnosed before treatment.
Recognizing the overlap
Mood episodes and substance use can each intensify the other if not addressed together.
Signs of Mood Episodes
Manic or hypomanic episodes
Depressive episodes
Impulsivity during mood shifts
Rapid cycling between states
How It Connects to Substance Use

Substances used during depression
Substance use can trigger mood episodes
Medication non-adherence increases risk
The process
Stabilizing mood and addressing addiction happen together — neither is treated as secondary.
Psychiatric & substance assessment
Your psychiatrist evaluates your mood history and patterns alongside your substance use to understand how the two interact.
Medication stabilization
Mood-stabilizing medications are introduced or adjusted carefully, with close monitoring for safety and effectiveness.
Psychoeducation & therapy
You learn to recognize early warning signs of mood episodes and build coping strategies that don't rely on substances.
Stability-focused discharge planning
Your aftercare plan includes ongoing psychiatric monitoring, since consistent mood stability is essential to long-term recovery.
Why mood stability matters
Without consistent psychiatric monitoring, mood episodes can trigger impulsive substance use — and substance use can in turn destabilize mood further, creating a difficult cycle to break alone.

Co-occurrence rate between bipolar disorder and addiction
