Hey,<\/p>\n
How’s it going? I have to take off pretty quick here
because I have to go to train. <\/p>\n
As a side note, someone once asked how I think of topics
to write about each day. I have a lot of stuff to choose
from. I have over 100,000 on my list, it grows up to 800
people a day, I have 8 people who work for me with a mental
illness, my mom has bipolar disorder, I have friends
with it, so coming up with new things to write about
is pretty easy.<\/p>\n
But getting up each morning and spending 1 hour writing
and thinking about it can be hard. Especially when
you are tired \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Yesterday I was checking out my bipolar
blog yesterday at www.bipolarcentral.com\/supporterblog
and came across some interesting posts.<\/p>\n
Here’s one.<\/p>\n

I have a question for Mr. Oliver that doesn’t
really pertain to the news. I just didn’t know
how else to contact you. I’m Bipolar and I wonder
why I do what I do. I shut everybody out. I don’t
let ANYBODY know what’s going on except my Dr. even
when I’m manic – unless I can’t help it. Sure-
I yell a lot at my kids, and everybody knows I’m moody,
but I don’t want anybody to know I’m depressed,
suicidal, paranoid, manic or whatever. Why do I
do that? Is that normal behavior? <\/p>\n
And then I got another one that said.<\/p>\n

My mother is bipolar. I am at the end of my rope.
She keeps getting worse and worse. She has been
calling me latly leaving nasty messages. I don’t
know what to do. I just got married. We went to
Hawaii on our own just so she would not mess our
day up. Well, now she is giving us a reseption.
She claims all i do is complain about everything.
So not true. I am in the middle of starting my
new career.I have been going on interviews. i am a
stylist so I take clients at home right now. so I
am super busy. She calls me 10 times a day. If I
do not answer she getsreally bad and hateful. I
can’t take it. I don’t know what to do. Please help!<\/p>\n
I was reading these posts and thinking about
something that I learned when I was at school. I
have actually used it a lot over the years.<\/p>\n
It’s called Occam’s Razor.
Wikipedia says this of Occam’s Razor…
Occam’s razor (sometimes spelled Ockham’s razor)
is a principle attributed to the 14th-century
English logician and Franciscan friar William of Ockham. <\/p>\n
[The principle] often paraphrased as “All things
being equal, the simplest solution tends to be
the right one.” <\/p>\n
Most of the time, I find that when trying
to help someone with bipolar disorder, indeed
the simplest solution is the one that generally
works.<\/p>\n
If we look at the two posts, the simplest
solution that runs through for both people
is–the need to a correct treatment plan.<\/p>\n
The first person obviously is struggling
and needs to immediately go to the doctor
and express all the things posted in my blog
or have the help of someone who is around
and acting as bipolar supporter do it for
them or help them.<\/p>\n
As for the second person, the mother
needs proper treatment. This might sound
simple but it’s the truth. I find many
people waste so much time thinking of
what to do when the #1 focus has to be
getting either yourself (if you aren’t
stable ) or someone who
is not stable with bipolar disorder into
the right treatment plan. <\/p>\n
Many times, people are looking for very complex
strategies on how to “handle” someone with
bipolar disorder that is not stable or how to
handle severe mood swings. The answer is generally
simple–it’s about the right treatment plan.<\/p>\n
The first step is to find a good doctor. The good
doctor works to make a good treatment plan. After
that, everything else starts to fall into place.<\/p>\n
Virtually all the success stories in all my
courses\/systems below all started with getting
a good doctor and that person created a good
treatment plan.<\/p>\n

With bipolar disorder, don’t fall prey to
looking for super complex answers or strategies.
Remember the Occam’s Razor philosophy.<\/p>\n
For many that I have talked to with bipolar
disorder who have struggled. By them simply
going to the doctor once a month, changed their
entire life. All they really needed to do is
show up with consistency. <\/p>\n
If they would have done this from the time they
were first diagnosed, they would have not wasted
years and years of their lives. <\/p>\n
Well I have to take off for the day. Have a great
day and catch you tomorrow.<\/p>\n
