If you or a loved one has been
diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, it is important to learn as much as possible about
the illness. It is not curable, but it
is manageable with the proper medications and therapy.
To help you learn about what you or
your loved one may be experiencing, I’ve included links to some helpful sites
about Bipolar Disorder. In order to
successfully manage Bipolar Disorder, it is crucial that one remain under the
care of a psychiatric physician or nurse-practitioner. I offer these links because they provide a wealth
of information, but the information should not take the place of advice or
treatment recommended by a psychiatric care provider, and should not be used
for self-diagnosing.
