Purpose: This study examined the relationship of selfish behavior in patients regularly monitored with the diagnosis of bipolar disorder, the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of patients, impulsivity and childhood trauma. Tools and Methods: 91 patients followed with the diagnosis of bipolar disorder that appealed to our clinic were included. The study data was collected using the Emotional Disorders Patient Registration Form, SCID-I, SCID-II, Young Mani Evaluation Scale, Hamilton Depression Evaluation Scale, Self-Defective Behavior Scale, Childhood Trauma Scale and Barratt Density Scale. All the diagnosis processes and interviews are performed by the same psychiatrist. Results: 52 of the 91 patients involved in the study were women and 39 were men. In our study, 91 of the 40 patients with bipolar disorder had an autism attempt history. We found that the group in the initiative of self-determination saw the disease process more with depressive and complicated attacks, that functionality was partially affected in the inter-attacks period, and that the frequency of more severe attacks with psychotic characteristics was greater. In addition, we did not find a statistically meaningful relationship between the two groups for childhood trauma and impulsivity. Bipolar disorder is a disease that lasts a lifetime and greatly disrupts its functionality. Bipolar disorder is associated with high rates of self-sufficiency and completed self-sufficiency. In this regard, the investigation of sociodemographic, clinical and other variables between patients who are not in self-sufficiency behavior and the identification of possible risk factors will be effective in preventing the possible self-sufficiency behavior that may develop in patients.
