My Latest Bp Magazine Article

Do you read BP Magazine? I love it.

I also write a column for the magazine where I get to go into a personal topic in depth and tell a bit about myself in the process. There is always so much to write about – this time I chose the topic of cleaning up after a nasty mood swing. So much is affected when a person gets sick for a long period of time. Even a few weeks of a suicidal depression can change everything at work for example. This is especially true with mania- especially if sex or money were involved!

If you have never read the magazine, you are really in for something special. I recommend it for anyone and everyone affected by bipolar disorder.

Bipolar Disorder and Work: BP Magazine Link to My Column

I hope that all of you have a subscription to the excellent magazine BP Magazine: Hope and Harmony for People with Bipolar Disorder as it’s a truly amazing resource- it really does make you feel better to read each issue! I have had a column in the magazine for four years. I write on a variety of topics. My last topic was on work. You can read the whole article under my posting at the top of the page. It’s a great article for all of us who struggle to reconcile our work desires with our actual abilities. Ok, let’s be real- what I just wrote is an euphemism for the reality many of us face- we want to reach a work (or school) goal and bipolar disorder gets in our way and we then have to rethink, regroup and try something that may be quite different from what we want for ourselves.
