Why do people with bipolar disorder hide their diagnosis?

Patients perceive a negative stigma attached to the bipolar disorder diagnosis. It's a very personal decision to tell others about a bipolar disorder diagnosis. Even though the illness is now less stigmatized and is talked about more widely in the media, people may feel shame, fear losing a job, or worry that they will be judged by others for the illness.

If the person with bipolar disorder finds it overwhelming to deal with the diagnosis, it makes sense that the person may refuse medication treatment as well.
