Maurice Bernard Talks about Bipolar Disorder

By John M. Grohol, Psy.D.

This week on Johnson & Johnson’s YouTube channel, there’s a series of videos featuring General Hospital soap star, Maurice Bernard (who portrays Sonny Corinthos on the show), talking about his battle with bipolar disorder (manic depression). I thought you may be interested in checking the videos out:

I found the videos interesting for both people who might suffer from this concern (I always find it interesting when celebrities “come out” and discuss these things in public), as well as friends or family of someone grappling with it.

The last video discusses his last “breakdown” 11 years ago when he threatened his wife with violence, who has stood by Bernard throughout his illness. She never considered leaving him, despite the challenges faced of living with someone with bipolar disorder.
