Serious mental illness (SMI) commonly refers to a diagnosis of psychotic disorders, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, complex depression and anxiety disorders, and eating disorders.
Bipolar disorder can be a life-long mental health problem that mainly affects your mood. It affects how you feel, and your mood can change massively.
Our personality is the collection of characteristics that make us distinctive as people. How you think, how you feel about stuff, how you behave. This develops and adapts as you grow up and have different relationships and experiences.
Long-term health conditions can be physically demanding. They can also affect you mentally and emotionally. Depression, anxiety and sometimes anger are common responses reported by people with a long term health condition.
