Product Information

Thanks to sharper diagnosis and better medicine, the future is brighter for people with bipolar disorder than in past generations. But if you or someone you love is struggling with the frantic highs and crushing lows of this illness, there are still many hurdles to surmount at home, at work, and in daily life. *How can you learn to distinguish between the early warning signs of mood swings and the normal ups and downs of life? *What medications are available, and what are their side effects? *What should you do when you find yourself escalating into mania or descending into depression? *How can you get the help and support you need from family members and friends? *How can you tell your coworkers about your illness without endangering your career? In this comprehensive guide, Dr. David J. Miklowitz offers straight talk that can help you tackle these and related questions, take charge of your illness, and reclaim your life. A leading researcher and clinical specialist who knows what works, Dr. Miklowitz supplies proven tools to help you achieve balance--and free yourself from the emotional and financial havoc that result when symptoms rule your life--without sacrificing your right to rich and varied emotional experiences. This essential resource will help you and your family members come to terms with the diagnosis, recognize early warning signs of manic or depressive episodes, cope with triggers of mood swings, resolve medication problems, and learn to collaborate effectively with doctors and therapists. You'll learn specific ways to ask for support and help from your family and friends--and what to do when their "caring" feels like "controlling." For times when the going gets tough, a wealth of examples of how others have dealt with similar challenges offer new perspectives and new solutions. Whether you have recently been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, are considering seeking help for the first time, or have been in treatment for years, this empowering book is designed to help put you--not your illness--back in charge of your life.

Reviews
"Dr. Miklowitz's book is both impressive and very humane. His lucid, multidimensional exploration of the patient's experience and his practical and empowering self-management techniques go far toward promoting stability. This book should be required reading for people with the disorder, their family members, and the physicians and therapists who treat them."--Demitri F. Papolos, MD, and Janice Papolos, authors of Overcoming Depression and The Bipolar Child "When Miklowitz started his work, it seemed paradoxical to many that psychosocial approaches, including illness education, could affect the course of an illness which is incontrovertibly genetic and biological in its origins. It was Miklowitz's pioneering research that proved this assumption wrong. Now he has provided patients and families with just the right psychoeducational tool--an authoritative and eminently readable book about bipolar illness and its treatment."--Frederick K. Goodwin, MD, coauthor of Manic-Depressive Illness , Research Professor of Psychiatry; Director, Center on Neuroscience, Medical Progress and Society, George Washington University Medical Center "The Bipolar Disorder Survival Guide is a practical, straightforward book that will be a great help to those who have bipolar illness, as well as their families."--Kay Redfield Jamison, PhD, author of An Unquiet Mind and Night Falls Fast, "A thorough and well-written guide that is extremely helpful for both patients and clinicians."--The Carlat Report on Psychiatric Treatment "This book is crammed full of useful information for bipolar patients, their family members, therapists, friends, lovers, employers and anyone else interested in bipolar disorders....this book is so well written and so full of useful advice as to how to plan and organize a life, that it could be profitably studied by anyone, whether or not he or she has bipolar disorder or knows someone who does."--Metapsychology Online Book Reviews "...the chapter on 'Dealing with suicidal thoughts and feelings' is the best treatment of this topic I have ever read. Its 'Reasons for living' inventory might be a lifesaver."--mentalhealth today "...the author's expertise, compassion, and experience are evident throughout....well worth reading and remembering."--NAMI Advocate "...the book provides solid background information for school psychologists who may need to provide support to parents or colleagues who have bipolar disorder, and should do much to generate a more sympathetic understanding....School psychologists who feel completely comfortable with their understanding of bipolar disorder may wish to have a copy of this book on their shelf to loan out to others."--Communiqué "The Bipolar Disorder Survival Guideis a thorough, research-based book for consumers who would like to learn about their illness and how to manage it."--Reintegration Today "The book offers a wealth of material that can help demystify the disorder. Miklowitz methodically explains the disease, its symptoms and diagnosis, moves on to cogent explanations of its possible causes ('genetics, biology, ans stress'), then spends most of the book offering advice on how to manage it. He even offers worksheets and logs to help people come to a better understanding of and approach to bipolar illness....Informative, interesting, and compassionate,The Bipolar Disorder Survival Guide' is a valuable new resource for people with the illness, and their family and friends."--The Daily Camera "...recommended for patient education libraries and medium and large public libraries."--Library Journal, "Dr. Miklowitz's book is both impressive and very humane.

  • Informative in identifying this Personality Disorder

    I purchased this book for a friend who needed help identifying and handling her 45 yr. old daughter who seems to be exhibiting Bipolar behaviors. My friend has informed me that this book was very helpful, easy to read and understand.

  • Understanding your Disorder

    At the suggestion of my counselor, she recommended that I purchase this book. Well, after getting through almost half of the book, I am really finding out that my Bipolar really isn't my fault and that I'm not cracking up! This book starts with the genetic reasons all the way to coping mechanisms. This book has really taught me a lot to where I now really understand and how to cope. I highly recommend this book to anyone that really wants to educate themselves!

  • Decent book

    There are some helpful points in this book. It's not the best book in the world, but by far, not the worst. I would still recommend reading it as it might help you more than it did us. We have a new daughter in law who is bi polar and it did help understand a few things. And any help is still help, right?
