As some who has also been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, I loved this book. I was so confused with myself, and I had this horrible habit of taking it out on the people around me. It was always the people that cared and tried to help me out the most. This book was bought for me, by one of those amazing friends. After reading this book, it helped me calm me down from the overwhelming hissy fits. It also helped me understand why I was feeling the way I was, as well as reacting to everything. Medication isn't always the key, and I would recommend this book to anyone that needs help dealing with bipolar disorder. This is truly a great read.
