Hi,

Today I am going to teach you about getting
F^REE training on how to avoid episodes from
bipolar disorder.

First, I wanted to tell you a few things.

1. I am going to be starting a kind of mentorship program
in several areas. I am not 100% sure how this is going
to work exactly. So far we have one person who is
probably going to be in the program for 20 year olds.
The program will consist of working with someone who
has bipolar disorder and knows how to manage it well.
She will be working with this person to provide guidance
in many areas.

Also, I will be paying for some doctor and therapy visits
as well.

In about the next month, I am going to be looking for
someone who is supporting one or more children with
bipolar disorder around the age of 10 years old. Right
now, this program will be offering for F^REE a lot of
support, paid doctor and therapist visits, contact
with various people throughout the country that are
experts in supporting children with bipolar disorder
and several other things.

Keep your eyes open if you are interested and this
will be coming out over the next month or so.

Okay on to today’s topic. I have been writing
about bipolar disorder and the episodes that
come from them over the last 10 days or so.

If you missed these daily emails, you can get
them by clicking on my blog at the end of this
email.

Today in this final installment of this email
series on bipolar disorder and episodes, I am
going to tell you how to get F^REE training
on how to avoid episodes from bipolar disorder.

Am I crazy? No. There is a way. I teach it in
my courses/systems. It’s really simple.

Here’s what you do, you look at the past episodes
that have occurred and then you overlap what
took place against the bipolar stability equation
that I wrote about last week in my daily email
and the same one I talk about in my courses/systems.

Remember the bipolar stability equation is all the
things that make someone stable. It’s different
for everyone and as you may remember, I pointed
out it consists of a number of things. These “things”,
which right now I am dead tired and can’t think of
another word besides things, combine together to
keep a person stable and doing well.

In my mom’s case, it took over almost 40 years
to figure out there was such a thing as a bipolar
stability equation. ALL the doctors and therapists
she had worked with never told her any of this. It
was actually me who did.

Anyway, with my mom and bipolar disorder, here are
some things her stability equation includes:
medication, therapy, sleep, exercise, NOT eating
fast foods or food with sugar, listening to calming
music before bed, church, NOT talking to friends with
problems, working, NOT watching mindless TV programs
and there are several other things.

She MUST do all these things. MUST. MUST. MUST. It’s
not an option.

Okay, so back to how to get the F^REE training. In
the case of my mom’s last episode which occurred like
a month or so again and lasted about 10 to 14 days,
here’s what I did.

I went back in history and I looked at her stability
equation and decided if she had been following it.
I was shocked what I found. Guess what I found?

Guess first then scroll down….

Don’t cheat. Guess. Scroll then…

Did you guess??? Keep scrolling…

SHE DID FOLLOW HALF OF WHAT SHE WAS SUPPOSE TO!

I was really kind of annoyed at her. She knew
better. At first my mom was like, “I have no
idea why I got into this episode.” She actually
convinced her doctor AND therapist that this
was one of those episodes that just happened
even though she was doing everything right.

SIDE NOTE: It’s true that if you have bipolar disorder
and do EVERYTHING right, you follow your stability
equation, you can go into an episode. This is a sad
fact. BUT, I must say, every time someone goes
into an episode and I am called to talk about it
and figure things out through one of my F^REE consultation
certificates for NON medical and NON legal questions
(because I am NOT a doctor or lawyer), I find people
violated 90% of the basics to maintaining stability.
EVERY TIME I found this.

I have never personally found someone who went into
a major bipolar disorder episode that did everything
right followed his/her bipolar stability equation.

Anyway back to that last point. So my mom’s doctor
and therapist actually thought she did do everything
right until I stepped in and got them the facts.

Then after a few days of trying to “pull one over
on me”, my mom finally admitted that she didn’t
follow everything and was sorry.

I told my mom about if she would have taken her
episodes from 35 and 40 years ago and figured
out what went wrong, she would have prevented
future episodes.

You may think this is simple and be disappointed
with my F^REE training concept but it works. I have
taught it in tons of other things in my
courses/systems to thousands of people now.

There’s a good quote:

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned
to repeat it.”

I will tell you something about me. People get really
annoyed at me because they say I dwell on the past. I
don’t but when you do consulting and run different
businesses, you find people make the same mistakes
over and over and over and over and over and over again.

I have seen companies I have consulted with, increase
in sales, then decrease in sales and then increase,
then decrease all by making the same mistakes over
and over in 10 year time period. It’s amazing to
me. And when you point it out to them, they get
all mad and say things like “I don’t look back
you have to move forward.” I roll my eyes in
my head and laugh inside.

When I started helping my mom, I saw the same thing.
I personally believe that studying history is very
important to avoid repeating past mistakes made.

The quote above comes from the writings of George
Santayana, a Spanish-born
American author from a long time ago. I forget when
actually.

You see what happen with our family, really my dad
and mom is they kept making the same exact mistakes
with bipolar disorder year after year for 38 years.
They never ever learned from anything. It was strange.
If you asked them today, they would both agree this
was a huge, gigantic mistake that basically destroyed
many parts of our family, my finances, their finances
and a whole bunch of relationships.

Well I have to take off for today. Have a good
day. Catch you tomorrow.

Your Friend,

Dave
