Dan is one of the<br \/>best body builders I know. He knows a ton.<\/p>\n<p>So he was telling me and these are his<br \/>words, &#8220;I was a fat dumpy dude. One day I decided<br \/>that I was sick of being fat and dumpy. So I wanted<br \/>to get into shape and be big. I found a guy who<br \/>was in really good shape and competed. He taught<br \/>me a ton. I watched what he did and did what<br \/>he did. He was in my gym so I could just become<br \/>him by watching and doing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After Dan told me this story, I was thinking about<br \/>bipolar disorder and how when I was trying to figure<br \/>out how to help my mom I was trying to find successful<br \/>bipolar supporters. I was trying to find successful<br \/>people with bipolar disorder. I never really could <br \/>in any meetings.<\/p>\n<p>I remember there was this one woman. And I am very thankful<br \/>for what she did. Let met tell you what happen. I was<br \/>at a meeting volunteering (NOTE-I started volunteering before<br \/>I started this website). <\/p>\n<p>Anyway I was trying to understand whether or not my mom should<br \/>go on disability, how you did it, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Then all of a sudden at the end of a meeting I walked<br \/>by this woman and she look really sharp. She was talking<br \/>to another lady about disability and giving her the EXACT<br \/>steps of how to get it if you had bipolar disorder.<\/p>\n<p>The steps were so clear. I remember asking. &#8220;Excuse me<br \/>sorry to listen in but I was wondering if I could<br \/>take notes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This woman was super nice and said, &#8220;yes&#8221; of course.<\/p>\n<p>So she explained all about disability and how to<br \/>figure it all out. She was a tremendous teacher.<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t realize the gift of having bipolar disorder.<br \/>She was the first person that I saw how a person<br \/>with bipolar disorder is super smart, super intelligent,<br \/>and when he\/she is stable can take a complex problem<br \/>and break it down into very simple steps. That&#8217;s<br \/>what she did.<\/p>\n<p>I remember how excited I was to talk to her. She was excited<br \/>to talk to me. I told her how I was kind of discouraged<br \/>because I only met one successful person like herself<br \/>and many people in the meetings were just rambling.<\/p>\n<p>She said, &#8220;yea, that&#8217;s the way it goes.&#8221; She went on<br \/>to say that her husband who is a bipolar supporter<br \/>hates the meetings and doesn&#8217;t like to go and she<br \/>really doesn&#8217;t either. She likes being around positive<br \/>people.<\/p>\n<p>She gave me her number and said call anytime. <\/p>\n<p>Guess what? The number fell out of my car and blew<br \/>way. How annoying. <\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless&#8230;You know I am always telling you about how<br \/>smart, creative and intelligent those who<br \/>work for me that have one or more disorders<br \/>like bipolar disorder are.<\/p>\n<p>Well it was amazing. As soon as two people got<br \/>back from vacation that amount of things accomplished<br \/>increased dramatially. <\/p>\n<p>Always remember that you or your loved one with<br \/>bipolar disorder can become high functioning<br \/>and do well. Really well. No matter how<br \/>you or your loved one is doing right now.<\/p>\n<p>One person who works for me has I think 8 different<br \/>disorders, has been married 5 times, homeless several<br \/>times, addicted to drugs\/alcohol, and was told that<br \/>there was no hope and permantent instiution was the<br \/>only solution.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s so odd as I write this because you would NEVER<br \/>know this had any disorder at all. Not one. And <br \/>this person gets so much done and does it so well<br \/>it&#8217;s amazing.<\/p>\n<p>I like to keep on reminding you of these types<br \/>of people because many people on my list feel<br \/>discouraged. Either they or their loved one&#8217;s<br \/>aren&#8217;t doing well.<\/p>\n<p>One of the major reasons that my courses\/systems<br \/>below have &#8220;success&#8221; interviews is so that people<br \/>can hear both successful bipolar supporters AND<br \/>success bipolar survivors. <\/p>\n<p>SUPPORTING AN ADULT WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>Visit:<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/report11\">http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/report11<\/a><\/p>\n<p>SUPPORTING A CHILD\/TEEN WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>Visit:<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarparenting.com\">http:\/\/www.bipolarparenting.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>HAVE BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>Visit:<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.survivebipolar.net\">http:\/\/www.survivebipolar.net<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t really mentioned this in a while but<br \/>here was my goal with all the interviews. <\/p>\n<p>It was to find the worst cases, the people who<br \/>had the WORST circumstances ,the people who<br \/>everyone said, &#8220;give up, there&#8217;s no hope&#8221; and<br \/>those that turned it around and now are doing great.<\/p>\n<p>Why did I want these types of people? 98% of people<br \/>will never have the struggles that my success interviews<br \/>have so they will be able to learn from these individuals<br \/>who were far worse off than they were.<\/p>\n<p>They can model these individuals. This means they <br \/>can listen to what they are saying and doing and<br \/>start doing it themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Modeling is really critical. The challenge with <br \/>modelling when you are dealing with bipolar diosrder<br \/>is that most people do not know anyone else who<br \/>is doing really well with bipolar disorder or as a<br \/>bipolar supporter.<\/p>\n<p>I have two recommendations. Try to find people who <br \/>are successful dealing with bipolar disorder in your<br \/>particular circumstance and model them. Don&#8217;t argue<br \/>and debate.<\/p>\n<p>What do I mean by in your circumstance? Well if<br \/>you are a bipolar supporter, you are looking for<br \/>successful bipolar supporters like you.<\/p>\n<p>If you have bipolar disorder your looking for successful<br \/>people with bipolar disorer to model like you.<\/p>\n<p>Make sense? Modeling is a powerful 8 letter<br \/>word for bipolar success.<\/p>\n<p>Your Friend,<\/p>\n<p>Dave<\/p>\n<p>===>> Great Resources For You <===\n\nGet Your Own Subscription To This Newsletter<br \/>Want your own copy of these daily bipolar<br \/>emails sent to you for F.ree?
