Our Joint Commission accredited programs treat bipolar disorder alongside co-occurring substance use disorders through evidence-based, integrated care designed to support mood stabilization and long-term recovery.

What Is Bipolar Disorder?

Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition characterized by episodes of mania or hypomania alternating with episodes of depression. It affects approximately 2.8 percent of U.S. adults annually and is closely associated with substance use disorders, with research indicating that up to 60 percent of people with bipolar disorder have a co-occurring substance use problem (SAMHSA, 2023).

Bipolar I disorder involves full manic episodes that may require hospitalization, while Bipolar II involves hypomanic episodes and major depression. Cyclothymia is a milder form involving less severe mood fluctuations over two or more years. All three types can co-occur with substance use disorders and benefit from integrated dual diagnosis treatment.

The mood instability of bipolar disorder is frequently self-medicated with: 

Treating one condition without the other produces poor long-term outcomes. Heartfelt Recovery Centers’ mental health treatment model addresses both in a single, coordinated outpatient program in Hudson, NH.

Bipolar Disorder and Addiction: The Connection

Substance use and bipolar disorder have a bidirectional relationship: each worsens the other. Alcohol and drugs can trigger manic or depressive episodes and interfere with mood-stabilizing medications. Untreated bipolar disorder drives substance use as a form of self-medication. Integrated dual diagnosis treatment, addressing both conditions simultaneously, produces significantly better outcomes than sequential treatment.

People with bipolar disorder who also have a substance use disorder are more likely to experience rapid cycling between mood states, higher rates of hospitalization, and greater difficulty maintaining stable employment and relationships. Early, integrated treatment in an outpatient setting can interrupt this cycle effectively.

At Heartfelt Recovery Centers, our clinical team conducts a comprehensive dual diagnosis assessment during intake to evaluate: 

This assessment informs a personalized care plan that addresses the full clinical picture.

How Bipolar Disorder Is Treated at Heartfelt Recovery Centers

Outpatient bipolar disorder treatment combines psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and evidence-based psychotherapy. Mood-stabilizing medications are prescribed and monitored by our medical staff when clinically indicated, and patients receive psychoeducation about the relationship between bipolar disorder, substances, and recovery.

Therapeutic modalities include:

Both our PHP and IOP are available for people with bipolar disorder. PHP is appropriate for people in acute phases of mood instability or those transitioning from inpatient care. IOP provides less intensive support for people who have achieved greater stability and can manage daily responsibilities independently.

Insurance Coverage for Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Bipolar disorder treatment is covered by most major insurance plans as a mental health benefit under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act. Heartfelt Recovery Centers accepts Anthem BCBS, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, WellSense, Humana, Medicaid NH, and Medicare.

Our admissions team verifies your benefits before your first appointment at no cost. Call (603) 207-1633 or verify your insurance to confirm your coverage before starting treatment.
