Positive Book On Living With Bipolar Posted: 09-08-05 11:22am
Read loads of stuff some rubbish, some ok
but have just read a really positive
autobiography on living with it. The
girl developed it her teens and is now and
it is her story of getting it and being
really really ill and then getting to
grips with it.
Think it is the best account of the
condition that I have read so far and it
is a very positive account of learning to
handle it. It is quite constructive with
what she found helped her.
Her mum then wrote her version of the
story too which is most unusual and will
be very helpful for families and the
professionals - there can't be many other
joint publications on living with mental
illness about. My folks found it very
useful and they cope with me better now.
The naked bird watcher by suzy johnston
to walk on eggshells by jean johnston
maybe this will help some of you or at
least help your families to understand.
