Book Description

Coping with Bipolar Disorder is designed specifically for sufferers or bipolar disorder, their carers, friends and family. It combines definitive coverage of the condition and information about treatment, with a new approach which encourages patients to manage their own psychological health using cognitive behaviour therapy, as well as the more traditional medication regimes. The result is a straightforward and readable book which will empower sufferers, in addition to giving them necessary advice on such key areas as sleep habits, coping with stress and anger, and relating to family and friends.

  • authors draw widely on case studies, and on their own therapeutic work with clients

  • one of the few books in this area to reveal that the individual living with bipolar disorder can play a key part in managing their own psychological health
