Abstract
Perfectionism is elevated in several mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety and eating disorders. This presentation will give an overview of current research for the link between dysfunctional attitudes and perfectionism in bipolar disorder specifically. A recent meta-analysis by the author on dysfunctional attitudes will be presented demonstrating that there elevated in bipolar disorder compared to healthy controls, but not the general population. Further, dysfunctional attitudes are higher when those with bipolar disorder are depressed compared to euthymic. This meta-analysis also showed that CBT and mindfulness based cognitive therapy can reduce dysfunctional attitudes in bipolar disorder. Gaps in evidence and practical suggestions for addressing these difficulties in therapy will then be presented.
