Summary

Bipolar Disorder is a major mood disorder with periodic mood episodes that may be very distressing, both to the individual and to others. When ill, the person is at particular risk for disruptions to social and occupational functioning, physical health, and even premature death. When not in an episode, individuals with BD may still be feeling well but have ongoing neurobiological processes, as well as the psychological sequelae from illness episodes, that can lead to subtle neurocognitive impairment that impedes overall functioning. This study is a test of an existing, published intervention that ameliorates deficits in functioning in euthymic bipolar individuals.

Functional Remediation

Functional Remediation: The functional remediation program consists of 21 weekly sessions, each lasting 90 min. This intervention addresses neurocognitive issues such as attention, memory and executive functions, but it focuses even more on enhancing functioning in daily routine. The content of the intervention is based on ecological tasks to be performed in two settings, in the clinic as well as at home. Participants will be trained with exercises for memory, attention, problem solving and reasoning, multitasking and organization in order to improve their functional outcome. Most of the techniques are based on paper-and-pencil tasks and group activities.
