About this audiobook

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The ill-informed attitudes that the words and comments above reflect have kept mental illness in the closet for years. They believe that bipolar disorder is as crazy as a heart condition, and that its symptoms are not as cut and dried. #2 People with bipolar I have extreme mood swings, which may include losing the need to sleep or eat, talking and thinking erratically, and becoming easily angry and irritated. They may be delusional, thinking, for example, that they are having relationships with famous people. #3 Manic episodes are diagnosed if elevated mood occurs with three or more of these symptoms most of the day, nearly every day, for one week or longer. #4 A depressive is diagnosed if five or more of these symptoms last most of the day, nearly every day, for a period of two weeks or longer.
