Hi,
How’s it going?
I didn’t tell you this but over the
last couple of weeks, there has been this
new diet sweeping one of the gyms I go
to.
IMPORTANT BIPOLAR LESSON COMING
Here’s what happen.
One of the gyms that I work out in has a lot of
body builders in it. Also powerlifters and
strongmen and other kinds of people competing.
One day a guy started talking about how he
was going in an contest and he was trying
a new diet–a diet for sophisticated and
for advanced people.
The diet is a short term diet. It causes
dramatic fat loss but if you don’t get off
it fast enough you can really mess yourself
up.
The diet is actually borderline dangerous.
Anyway, a bunch of regular people that had
no idea about the diet and how to get on
it properly and more importantly how to
get off it, started it.
NOTE-with this type of diet, if you get
off it wrong, you can gain a TON of weight
and it’s really hard to ever lose the
weight you gain. It’s just the nature
of the diet.
Anyway, a bunch of people went on it wrong.
They had no idea what they were doing and
then got off. They got off the diet wrong
and wound up gaining a ton of weight.
Now they are bigger than before.
All because the people wanted this
short cut and didn’t research carefully.
What’s this have to do with bipolar disorder?
A lot. The entire thing got me to thinking
about how people run around and try
things and methods for bipolar disorder
that no one has tested or don’t come from
medical experts.
Or another common thing I see is, people
at meetings or on the internet, hear ONE part of
a person’s treatment plan and they try to do
it without all the other parts. Without talking
to their doctor.
If I had a dollar for every time I saw this
in a support group meeting, I would be rich.
It amazes me how people think there is “one
good bipolar medication.” One kind of treatment
plan.

I show you how to set up systems for
things like this. How to take it slow
so that you do it right, not fast so
that you do it wrong and then fail.
Don’t let something like this happen
to you. Know what I mean?
I just looked at the clock and have to run.
