Title: Very Good Info for Bipolar and Families
Review: My counselor recommended this book to me after years of having the diagnosis. I found out more about the disease from this book in the 10 years before from my doctors. This book has great information on recognizing mood swings, medication, lifestyle suggestions and more. I enjoyed the case studies of real people who suffer from the same disease and felt calmed and like I was not "the only one". The author takes away some of the fear of "being discovered" with a mental illness and I like how he confronts the disease with knowledge and compassion. With this illness now a "catch-all" disease for the media, I didn't feel quite like a freak after I read this book. I am definitely going to pass this book on to my husband and my family and I hope they come away from the experience the way that I did - with hope.
