Drawing on research documenting the strength of combining drug
treatments with behavioral interventions for fighting bipolar
disorder, Living with Bipolar Disorder takes a skill-based approach
to managing the ups and downs commonly experienced with the
disorder. With this book, readers can learn how to better recognize
mood shifts before they happen, minimize their impact, and move on
with their lives. Written by the authors of Managing Bipolar
Disorder: A Cognitive Behavioral Treatment Program, this helpful
guide teaches individuals with bipolar disorder how to take charge
of their illness and get the most out of professional treatment.
The authors stress the importance of an active partnership in
treatment, while providing information and strategies to help
patients and their families enhance their independence and their
management of bipolar disorder. In addition to the strategies
directed to individuals suffering from bipolar disorder, this book
also provides information and instructions for friends and family
members so they'll have the tools to help their loved ones. Family
members will learn how to recognize potential problems, provide
encouragement, practice new coping skills, and understand what the
patient is going through. The book also provides worksheets and
forms to help the patient reinforce skills and practices learned in
therapy. It includes information about the details of living with
bipolar disorder, gives advice on the best ways to avoid relapses,
and teaches how to anticipate problems. Here then is a wealth of
information on bipolar disorder partnered with effective strategies
to reduce the likelihood of episodes of depression or mania and
maximize the enjoyment of life.
