Take Charge of Bipolar Disorder: A 4-Step Plan for You and Your Loved Ones to Manage the Illness and Create Lasting Stability by Julie A. Fast, John Preston
4.0
This is a book really focused on bipolar adults, but does have some supportive ideas for parents and family members.
It covers a 4 step treatment plan that includes:
* Medications and supplements: finding the right medication mix is difficult, but once you've found it, you will benefit
* behavioral changes: knowing your triggers and how to stop a mood swing before it goes too far
* lifestyle changes: sleep, diet, exercise, light, work and money
* asking for help: your health care team, your friends and family, and hospitals
The book also includes a guide to using this 4 step plan in every day life.
