Someone took\nmy keys where my wallet and\neverything was in my car.\n\nI was waiting at the gym for\nalmost 1 and \u00bd hours.\n\nFinally they made an announcement\nand someone realized they took\nmy keys by accident.\n\nYou know what? If I didn\u2019t get\nthem, I would not have been sending\nyou this email. My computer was in\nmy car, my house keys were lost\nand it would have been a mess.\n\nAnyway, another thing\u2026\n\nSomeone asked me if \nthese emails come from a real\nperson. \n\nYea they do: )\n\nI don\u2019t know how you could \nhave a computer to do this on a daily\nbasis. ha ha.\n\nAnyway, I bet you think I am crazy with the \ntitle of today\u2019s bipolar lesson.\n \nSeriously - think I am crazy?\n \nI am not.\n \nI sent this message out for a \nvery important reason.\n \nHere\u2019s the deal.\n \nPeople ask me all the time how \ndo they find out if they are bipolar \n1 or 2 and some even ask whether \nthey are bipolar 3! \n\n(I was just kidding about the bipolar \n3, 5, 6, and 7.)\n \nHere\u2019s the point.\n \nDon\u2019t get caught up in labels. Focus \non the fact that you have bipolar \ndisorder or that you are supporting \na loved one who does.\n \nDon\u2019t get bogged down with trying \nto understand bipolar 1 versus 2, etc.\n \nI have seen people make this make \ntoo many times.\n \nThey believe or are told they have \n\u201cmild bipolar\u201d or not \u201cthe bad kind.\u201d\n \nSo then they let their guard down \nand guess what? \n\nWHAMO, a bipolar episode strikes.\n \nActually, before I continue, I want \nto remind you for the like 500th time \nthat I am NOT a doctor, psychiatrist, \ntherapist, financial advisor, lawyer, \ninsurance person, etc. Or, any other \nkind of professional, for that matter.\n \nI just do not want anyone misled.\n \nAnyway, my feeling is this (and you \nshould run it past your doctor and think \nabout it yourself):\n \nI feel that basically anyone who is stable \ncan become unstable if they are not \nfollowing their treatment plan or all the \nparts of their bipolar stability equation. \n\nThe person who has mild bipolar disorder\ncan wind up having severe bipolar disorder.\n \nThe person who was never been violent can\nbecome violent.\n \nAlso, I have seen different people\u2019s\nbipolar disorder change and evolve.\n\nThey may have been diagnosed as having\nbipolar 1 disorder and then rediagnosed as\nbipolar 2 disorder, and vice-versa.\n \nJust don\u2019t get caught up in this kind of \nbipolar disorder versus that kind of \nbipolar disorder or you will get frustrated.\n\nIn my courses\/systems, I give the signs and \nsymptoms of each disorder, but that's just \nfor information, and not for you to self-diagnose.  \nOnly your doctor can diagnose you.\n\n                           NEW\nLEARN THE SECRETS OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL WITH \nBIPOLAR DISORDER?\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/bipolarmastersystem\/\">http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/bipolarmastersystem\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>SUPPORTING AN ADULT WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>\nVisit:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/report11\">http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/report11<\/a><\/p>\n<p>SUPPORTING A CHILD\/TEEN WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>\nVisit:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarparenting.com\">http:\/\/www.bipolarparenting.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>HAVE BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>\nVisit:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.survivebipolar.net\">http:\/\/www.survivebipolar.net<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Still, I mean what I said:<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t worry so much about labels.<\/p>\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t matter what type of bipolar<br \/>\ndisorder that you have.<\/p>\n<p>You should be more concerned with<br \/>\nbecoming stable with your bipolar<br \/>\ndisorder, which is much more important.<\/p>\n<p>If you have bipolar disorder, there are<br \/>\nseveral things you can do to gain stability,<br \/>\nlike taking your medication religiously,<br \/>\nand seeing your therapist on a regular<br \/>\nbasis.<\/p>\n<p>If you do other things like keep a<br \/>\ngood sleep pattern, exercise, and eat<br \/>\na healthy diet, you will only be helping<br \/>\nyour stability with bipolar disorder.<\/p>\n<p>If you are supporter of  a loved one<br \/>\nwith bipolar disorder, there are several<br \/>\nways you can help them to achieve<br \/>\nstability.<\/p>\n<p>The greatest thing you can do for your<br \/>\nloved one is just to be there for them,<br \/>\noffering your unconditional love and<br \/>\nsupport.<\/p>\n<p>They will also need your understanding<br \/>\nwhen they experience the fear and<br \/>\nconfusion of a bipolar episode.<\/p>\n<p>When someone with bipolar disorder<br \/>\nis in an episode, does it really matter<br \/>\nwhether they are bipolar 1, bipolar 2,<br \/>\nor whatever type they are?<\/p>\n<p>If you have bipolar disorder, has it<br \/>\never mattered to you?<\/p>\n<p>If you are a supporter, has it ever<br \/>\nmattered to you?<\/p>\n<p>FIND OUT WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT ME<br \/>\nVisit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarcentral.com\/testimonials\">http:\/\/www.bipolarcentral.com\/testimonials<\/a><\/p>\n<p>See you later on.<\/p>\n<p>Your Friend,<\/p>\n<p>Dave<\/p>\n<p>===>> Great Resources For You <===\n\nGet Your Own Subscription To This Newsletter\nWant your own copy of these daily bipolar\nemails sent to you for F.ree?
