An Introduction

Welcome Friends! This blog has been created for those who experience the stressors that come from Bipolar Disorder (BD), especially among couples.

The goal of this blog is to help couples to feel empowered with knowledge and tools to help them create a more satisfying family life amidst Bipolar Disorder.

The objectives of this blog are to help readers have an understanding of the nature and effects of Bipolar Disorder, to be able to identify illness-related stressors, and to practice and apply effective communication strategies for dealing with illness stressors.

As you navigate through this blog you will find information, activities, diagrams, videos and more related to different topics. Some of the topics include: A historical background of Bipolar Disorder, basic knowledge about Bipolar Disorder, identifying symptoms of BD and couple communications.
