Revised and updated, Take Charge of Bipolar Disorder is a groundbreaking, comprehensive program to help those with bipolar disorder—and those who care about them—gain permanent control over their lives.

Most people diagnosed with bipolar disorder are sent home with the name of a doctor and multiple prescriptions. However, few people with bipolar disorder are able to find long-term stability with medications alone. Bipolar disorder researcher and expert Julie A. Fast, who was diagnosed with the illness at age thirty-one, and specialist John Preston, PsyD, offer the pioneering Take Charge program used around the world to help readers promote stability, reduce mood swings, increase work ability, decrease health care costs, and improve relationships. The book guides those with bipolar disorder and their loved ones toward a comprehensive personal treatment plan by incorporating:

• Medications and bipolar-safe supplements
• Lifestyle changes that help manage bipolar symptoms naturally
• Behavior modifications that reduce and prevent symptoms
• Guidelines on assembling an effective support team

By helping readers gather powerful strategies, Take Charge of Bipolar Disorder delivers a dynamic program to treat this difficult but ultimately manageable illness.

I’ve heard these stories and the similarities to my own life are uncanny which it is scary yet comforting . Well, it’s nice to know I’m not the only one going through this situation. It’s hard to think that even a good change like a promotion is stressful to the Bipolar brain. This is why, I ruined every promotion or amazing job I’ve ever earned. Well, this is my life. I appreciate the book. I will keep it in my arsenal to combat this misunderstood, misguided, and misdiagnosed disease!
