 Straight talk, real help! April 16, 2004
31 out of 32 found this review helpful
After several years of living with a bipolar disorder person, and consulting every book, article, and medical journal I could find, as well as consulting with psychiatrists, psychologists, and support groups, I can truly say that Julie Fast and John Preston have done an outstanding job of creating the most comprehensive resource to date for friends and families of loved ones suffering with bipolar disorder. They have spelled out very frankly the subtelties that indicate a mood change is coming on and the chaos and horrors that can befall the vicitms of mania and depression. Their guidance gives the reader the necessary information to help, yet counsels a compassionate response. Objective, knowledgabe helpers can be a lifeline to their loved ones when they are ill. I have never seen this much information and level of detail in one place before. It has taken me years to collect this volume of information, some of it at a a very dear cost -- here it is in one book. If you love someone with bipolar disorder, buy and read this book -- every person in my family is getting their own copy. Many thanks to Fast and Preston!

Julie's work is amazing. When my husband was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, her techniques literally saved his life and our relationship. If you or someone in your life has bipolar disorder, this book is essential for you! Julie understands this issue first hand and communicates her knowledge brilliantly. I would recommend this book to everyone!
