    Yes it is possible. I met a couple at my clubhouse (clubhouse btw is social and vocational rehabilitation for people with mental health issues). The woman was bipolar and the guy schizophrenic. They have been together 10 years. The important thing is for them to be properly supported by doctors and maybe, if their illnesses are severe, support workers. If they are both stable however, there is no reason whatsoever that they cannot be together. They would probably have an understanding of mental illness that the layperson does not have.

    Well if you mean from a medical point then no, they aren't the same disease by far. But can they get close or be friends? Why not? They'd both have a bad mental illness that can affect their jobs and their lives, so that's a definite level to relate on.

    Of course they can, as long as they are both stable and adhering to medications. Also due to them both having serious conditions they would be more tolerant to each others behaviour.

    As long as the schizo has someone in there that the bipolar can relate to. Then yes.
