Abstract

bipolar disorder

functioning

neuropsychology

This article briefly reviews the neuropsychological deficits associated with bipolar disorder and examines how substance abuse, in particular chronic cannabis use, may contribute to these. The focus of the article is cannabis, owing to its popularity in patients with bipolar disorder, although many studies focus on its use in conjunction with other substances. The findings are contextualized within bipolar disorder, examining functional outcome. © 2006 Future Drugs Ltd.
