passing time. Generally, as a patient experiences more and more depressive episodes, the time between
the episodes decreases, and the severity of each episode increases.
Bipolar I: Have a poorer prognosis than do patients with major depressive disorder. About 40 to 50
percent of patients with bipolar I disorder may have a second manic episode within 2 years of the first
episode. poor occupational status, alcohol dependence, psychotic features, depressive features,
interepisode depressive features, and male gender were all factors that contributed a poor prognosis.

psychiatric or medical problems predict a better outcome.
