7. Carrie Fisher
Carrie Fisher is another celebrity who has bipolar I disorder, a condition that is actually often associated with people in the arts. Unaware of her illness, Fisher believed that all her problems were linked to Hollywood life and refused to seek help for a very long time. After experiencing a psychotic break in 1997, 15 years after her first diagnosis was made, Fisher finally realized things had gone too far.
Apart from treating her condition, Fisher decided to tell the world about her problem and has continued speaking about life with mental illness ever since. The actress also wrote a bestselling book titled Postcards from the Edge and opened up about the time she spent in drug rehab. Fisher eventually wrote another autobiographical book, The Best Awful, in which she wrote about bipolar I disorder.
