2.5 million people live with a Bipolar Disorder in Germany. Statistically, it is one of the most common mental illnesses there. A project by Stella Meyer.
„Manchmal ist der Himmel bunt und manchmal ist er grau“ is
an ongoing portrait work about people suffering from Bipolar
Disorder. Every day, they and 2.5 million other people live with
it in Germany. Statistically, bipolarity is even one of the most
common mental illnesses there. The percentage of misdiagnoses
is 60% and on average it takes eight years to get a correct
diagnosis. One in four sufferers tries to take their own life.
