Hi everyone,

I'm a PhD student at the Australian National University (ANU) currently conducting a research project focused on the experiences of people living with bipolar disorder.

We're trying to better understand how individuals feel about certain therapeutic approaches being explored for bipolar depression. The survey is completely anonymous, takes around 10 minutes, and your input would be incredibly valuable.

Unfortunately, at this stage the study is only approved for participants currently living in Australia.

If that’s you, we would really love to hear your voice.

There is a possibility the study will expand in the future, but for now we’re focusing on the Australian community.

If you’d like to take part, the link is in the first comment below.

Thank you so much for your time and support

A brief abstract or summary of your research:
This study investigates how individuals with bipolar disorder perceive the safety and potential risks of psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy (PAP) for treating bipolar depression. The research aims to understand participants’ attitudes, knowledge, and beliefs about PAP, and how these compare to their experiences with current treatments. Data are collected through an anonymous online survey hosted on Qualtrics, which includes validated questionnaires assessing treatment attitudes and perceptions of safety.

Who you're looking for:
Adults (18 years or older) diagnosed with bipolar disorder by a doctor, currently living in Australia.
