Hi,<\/p>\n
How’s it going? I kind of have to make
this really quick because I have a meeting
to be at in about 45 minutes.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I saw this posted on my blog:<\/p>\n
Pat said…
the need to a correct treatment plan.
Boy that sounds so simple!
What do you do with the person with the bi-polar
disorder who:
1. lacks insight about how their bi-polar is
affecting them and those around them?
2. Is non-compliant about taking medication?<\/p>\n
Forgive me for seeming so negative.
I am a tired out mother of a 26 year old son
who is in the midst of an episode that swings
from mania to paranoia to depression. Who has
the problems listed above.
We have moved him out of our house to a nearby
city that has excellent mental health resourses,
now the question is will he avail himself of
these services.
We are all on a huge learning curve when it
comes to this bi-polar disorder.
Any tips?
Pat <\/p>\n
=========================================<\/p>\n
This post was in reference to a daily
email that I sent in regards to many people
forget that they have to focus on getting a
loved one on the right treatment plan.<\/p>\n
Anyway, many people wrote me back via email
and posted on my blog.<\/p>\n
I wanted to address Pat’s question by
saying, there is no easy way to deal with
her two problems.<\/p>\n
There is no way that I can just email out
a simple solution to a very complex problem.<\/p>\n
In my bipolar supporter course, I must have
maybe 25 methods for getting someone into
treatment. There is no one magic method
that will work no everyone. To make
matters worse if you have someone who
doesn’t want to go into treatment and
you find a method to get them in, if
another episode comes, many times whatever
technique you used won’t work again.<\/p>\n
It’s sad but true. It’s really annoy.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I guess my advice to Pat is to
realize that it’s going to be difficult,
she is going to have to try a number of techniques,
and it’s going to take time for her son to
accept he needs treatment and needs to continue
to take his medications.<\/p>\n
I have a bunch of courses\/systems on dealing
with bipolar disorder, whether you are supporting
an adult, child or have the disorder yourself.<\/p>\n
SUPPORTING AN ADULT WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?

SUPPORTING A CHILD\/TEEN WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?
Visit:
http:\/\/www.bipolarparenting.com<\/p>\n
HAVE BIPOLAR DISORDER?
Visit:
http:\/\/www.survivebipolar.net<\/p>\n
In these courses\/systems, when you listen to the
interviews, you hear bipolar supporters talk about
various techniques to get someone into treatment
or get someone to realize they have a mental
illness. On the flip side, when you listen to
the interviews of people with bipolar disorder
many talk about it took them several years to
come to terms with their bipolar disorder.<\/p>\n
BUT, most people who do well had bipolar
supporters to help them through this period.
Meaning, it’s rare that someone was way off
track with bipolar disorder and got themselves
back on track without any support or help
from someone else. <\/p>\n
Does that make sense? Meaning once people
with bipolar disorder aren’t stable it because
really difficult for them to make the right
decisions and it requires people like us–bipolar
supporters–to help get them back on track.<\/p>\n
It’s all very confusing and unfortunately when
it comes to this aspect of the illness, there is
no one solution. There are lots of potential
solutions that have to be tried.<\/p>\n
I wanted to write this because there are thousands
of people on my lists looking for that one
major solution but in my opinion there isn’t
one.<\/p>\n
Hey I have to get ready for my meeting. I will
catch you tomorrow.<\/p>\n
