List of people with bipolar disorder

Numerous notable people have had some form of mood disorder.

This is a list of people accompanied by verifiable sources associating them with some form of bipolar disorder (formerly known as "manic depression"), including cyclothymia, based on their own public statements; this discussion is sometimes tied to the larger topic of creativity and mental illness.

In the case of dead people only, individuals with a speculative or retrospective diagnosis should only be listed if they are accompanied by a source reflective of the mainstream, academic view.

Individuals should not be added to this list unless the disorder is regularly and commonly mentioned in mainstream, reliable sources.
