Resumen
[EN]Social withdrawal acts as a risk factor in mental health, disturbing clinical management and quality of life in euthymic bipolar patients. However, no previous study has analyzed what variables might predict it. We conducted a cross-sectional study in which 49 euthymic bipolar patients were assessed. The analysis showed that taken together, stereotype endorsement, discrimination experience and control over illness as measured by the ISMI, together explained 80.4% of the variability in social withdrawal. In conclusion, an early assessment of self-stigma and perception of control over illness would help euthymic patients to improve their social situation, reducing social withdrawal.
