But as a sufferer of bipolar disorder (also known as manic depression), he has been hospitalized several times with debilitating depression and undergone electric shock treatment, numerous drug therapies and even gone so far as to attempt to take his own life.This engaging, humorous, sometimes dark and sometimes startling account gives rich insight into how it feels to live with bipolar disorder. It is illuminating, and entertaining, reading for people with mental health problems, their families and professional carers.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 158mmItem Width: 9mmItem Weight: 248gAuthor: Brian AdamsGenre: BiographyTopic: Society & Culture, Personal Development, MedicineRelease Year: 2002 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
