Seven out of ten people with bipolar disorder are initially misdiagnosed and thirty percent of individuals with bipolar disorder will commit suicide. Identifying the early phases of the disorder is one of the key components for reducing the…
Language use offers valuable insight into affective disorders such as bipolar disorder (BD), yet past research has been cross-sectional and limited in scale. Here, we demonstrate that social media records can be leveraged to study…
The increasing prevalence of mental health disorders, such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder, calls for immediate need in developing tools for early detection and intervention. Social media platforms, like Reddit, represent a…
Bipolar disorder is a mental health disorder that causes mood swings that range from depression to mania. Diagnosis of bipolar disorder is usually done based on patient interviews, and reports obtained from the caregivers of the patients.…
Bipolar disorder (BPD) is a chronic mental illness characterized by extreme mood and energy changes from mania to depression. These changes drive behaviors that often lead to devastating personal or social consequences. BPD is managed…
Most previous studies on automatic recognition model for bipolar disorder (BD) were based on both social media and linguistic features. The present study investigates the possibility of adopting only language-based features, namely the…
