 Excellent, Well-Written Book about Bipolar Disorder Aug 17, 2010
The authors, both associated with the counseling center at the University of Virginia, have written a very complete, yet easy-to-read volume about biploar disorder. The book takes the reader from diagnosis to discussing the future that life holds for those with bipolar disorder. Additionally, there are chapters written about any topic a patient with BP would want to have answered.
Although this book's intended audience is for young adults and college students, I found the information in it was very helpful for me, too - and I'm 52! I enjoyed the way the authors used the language college students use, and I especially appreciated the case studies the authors use to illustrate the points they want to make. It's helpful to see how other people in the same situation have dealt with bipolar disorder.
If you are wondering if this book would help you understand bipolar disorder and assist you or a loved one face this diagnosis, I highly recommend that you order this book. You will not be disappointed.
Refreshing! Jul 23, 2010
Hands down, the best resource I've found for young adults dealing with bipolar disorder. I am 24 and was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder a few years ago. While I have been through many of the initial shocks and have learned the hard way that I need to be on a schedule (many of the things Facing Bipolar addresses), this book provided me with a sense of relief I didn't have before. Before reading this book, I felt alone. I don't know anyone my age or even close to it that struggles with mental health to the same extent. I've read half a dozen books about being bipolar and this is the one that really hit home. Facing Bipolar is a much needed resource for young adults dealing with bipolar disorder for the first time.
The Best Book Around for Basic Information on Bipolar! Jun 02, 2010
Facing Bipolar gives straightforward information on how Bipolar works, what to do to manage it and what to expect. It isn't full of technical medical study information, but rather information that anyone, whether a "Young Adult" or "Adult" can use. I think I have read them all, this was the best. In fact, I recommended it to a therapist friend who works with the local schools and they went out and got two copies for the special ed area to read themselves.
Excellent resource May 26, 2010
I found this book to be incredibly helpful. I am a student with bipolar disorder and have read more works on the disorder than I can count. This one stands out in particular for its ability to connect on a young adult's level and provide a detailed guide to how best to stay healthy. I highly recommend this work for anyone facing bipolar disorder.
 Facing Bipolar: The Young Adult's Guide to Dealing with Bipolar Disorder May 06, 2010
Very nice self-help book for my clients. Concrete and clear. A good reminder of things hopefully they already know...but it never hurts to be reminded of how to keep oneself on track.
