Welcome to new visitors on the Julie Fast Bipolar Disorder Blog
If you’re new to the Julie Fast blog, there is a wealth of information in the archives to the right.
I suggest starting with the Mania and Rapid Cycling sections as they are often the most confusing parts of bipolar disorder.
Last year the following topics received the most comments:
Generic Lamictal
Generic Lamictal- wow, we went crazy with this one as I had a terrible reaction to generic Lamictal, as did many of the blog readers. But, many of you wrote and said the generic Lamictal was just fine for you. Generics are an interesting topic as few people really understand them- including all of the people I asked when I got sick!
Britney Spears
The Britney Spears saga was also followed very closely- I was interviewed in US Magazine and on TV about her manic episode and subsequent psychosis and down swing- but I have to say that considering that she went out on tour less than a year later- I seriously doubt it’s bipolar disorder… can you imagine getting that sick and then going back to work that soon? I now feel it may have been a onetime episode- this definitely happens. Who knows! As I say in the blog entries- we can only speculate- what matters is that she seems to be ok now. Lucky her. Maybe she does have the illness and is an exception!
Bipolar Disorder Treatment
This is obviously my specialty. I’m often asked why I focus on bipolar disorder so much- the truth is that it focuses on me too much! When you have stable periods between mood swings – it’s called euthymia. I don’t get euthymia! I have the chronic stuff- writing about it keeps me well. I use my own tips daily. I try them out for a long time before I write about them. My books are listed in the About Julie’s Books tab on the menu bar. My treatment system called The Health Cards Treatment System for Bipolar Disorder is found on www.bipolarhappens.com.
These are just a few of the topics on this blog. If you’re new, welcome! I hope you find a lot of information and hope- and don’t forget to read the reader comments- there is a little icon about each blog entry that lets you see how many people have commented! The blog gets over 10,000 hits a month, so there is always great
content!
