Bipolar Disorder
I have been on medication since 2 years for bipolar disorder. I turned 31. I want to ask that should I get married if I am bipolar? When I tell the prospects that I have bipolar disorder but it's manageable by medicine and it's under control then I get a No as a response and marriage is cancelled. Is it possible in arrange marriage that I will be able to find partner who understands this condition and will marry knowing it in India ?

Hi Marriage is a big decision, and having bipolar disorder doesn’t mean you can’t have a happy, fulfilling relationship. The challenge in arranged marriage settings is that many people fear what they don’t understand. But the right person—the one who truly values you—will see beyond the diagnosis and focus on you as a person. One useful step? Look for prospects through platforms where mental health awareness is higher. You may also consider connecting with like-minded communities or using professional matchmaking services that cater to individuals with health conditions. The right partner exists; you just need to find someone who values honesty, resilience, and love over stigma.
