Hi,<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I hope you’re having a great day!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I am actually dead tired because I was up to like 2:00am working on stuff.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

My computer was driving me out of my mind. It kept turning off and on. I am very angry at it \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Oh, over the next few weeks, I am going to advertising a cool new job. It will be a great for someone with bipolar, depression or multiple mental illnesses. How do I know? Because I already have had one person in this position with 10 mental illnesses and another with 4. <\/span>It’s for someone who is smart, creative and is a pretty good writer.<\/p>\n

\n

I will post it soon.<\/p>\n

\n

Oh, NO this doesn’t mean that it is not for someone without a mental illness.<\/p>\n

\n

I am an equal opportunity employer just pointing out people with one or more mental illnesses are encouraged to apply.<\/p>\n

\n

Someone started a rumor that I only hired people with a mental illness which is not true. I hired someone a month ago without one…so there \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\n

But I do have a lot of people with a mental illness that work for me. That’s true.<\/p>\n

\n

Anyway, you’ve heard of One Size Fits All, right?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You’ve probably even tried something that has had a tag on it that says “One Size Fits All,” right? <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

(Most people have, and found out otherwise).<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s a perfect example: <\/span>T-shirts.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

One Size Fits All. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Yeah, right. <\/span>Until you wash it and find out that One Size Fits ONE \u2013 a child!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What about using the One Size Fits All technique on shoes?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Wouldn’t work, would it?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Then why do some doctors treating patients with bipolar disorder try to use the One Size Fits All technique on them?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

They prescribe the same medications to all their patients with bipolar disorder!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Back when bipolar disorder was first diagnosed, the first drug prescribed for it was Lithium. <\/span><\/span>Lithium was touted as the “wonder drug” for bipolar disorder.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Until some people had psychotic reactions to it!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Some people did well on that drug (still do), but others didn’t. <\/span>So the drug companies had to come up with other medications to treat bipolar disorder.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The One Size Fits All technique sure didn’t work with Lithium!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In my courses\/systems, I talk about how there are good doctors and bad doctors. <\/span>A bad doctor will use the One Size Fits All technique and prescribe the same medications for all his patients with bipolar disorder.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Whereas, a good doctor recognizes that different patients have different needs. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If he’s really good, you should feel as if you’re his ONLY patient (while you’re there).<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If he’s a good doctor, he shouldn’t just keep prescribing you the same medications every time you see him, year after year after year. <\/span><\/span>There should be changes from time to time.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Otherwise, he too is following the One Size Fits All technique.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Let me ask you something.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When you go to your therapist, do they act bored?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Are they easily distracted?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Do they take phone calls during your session?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Do they do other things while you’re talking?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Just like there can be good doctors and bad doctors, there can be good therapists and bad therapists, too, and these are all signs of a bad therapist, one who is using the One Size Fits All technique \u2013 who treats every client with bipolar disorder the same way.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It can even happen in Support Groups! <\/span>I know, because I’ve been there, and seen it happen.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Mary tells Joe that her sister Lucy found this miracle cure for bipolar disorder, so Joe should put his wife Linda on it right away so she can be cured, too!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Well, first of all, we all know there’s no cure for bipolar disorder, so there’s some kind of scam going on there.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Second of all, just because something worked for so-and-so, doesn’t mean it’s going to work for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Why?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Because One Size Does NOT Fit All!!!<\/span><\/p>\n
