Brief Summary: This is a pilot trial to examine the acceptability and feasibility of time-restricted eating as an adjunct to medication treatment for bipolar disorder.
Detailed Description: Time-restricted eating (TRE) is a way of scheduling food intake that has been shown to improve circadian rhythms in animals and humans. TRE is based on animal and human science that shows that the timing of eating powerfully influences diurnal rhythms. Animal research has shown that feeding during sleep periods leads to a surge of norepinephrine, cortisol, wakefulness, and activity. Drawing on this, over a decade of studies have examined the impact of experimentally randomizing mice to time-restricted feeding during wake hours (vs. 24-hour ad libitum feeding). Importantly, caloric intake and other facets of diet were yoked for strict control. A consistent finding is that TRE had powerful benefits for circadian and metabolic indicators across studies,and more recent data also shows benefit for animal longevity.

Here, the investigators' goal is to extend this work to bipolar disorder (BD). More specifically, the investigators will gather data to examine the acceptability and feasibility of TRE among those who self-identify with bipolar disorder and who experience some problems with sleep, circadian rhythms, or schedules. The investigators will gather measures of mania, depression, sleep, and QOL, to provide preliminary evidence of change on these dimensions.
