BIPOLAR INFORMATION


...for lack of time to come up with anything earth-shattering or original that most people with bipolar disorder have not read at some point (yet feeling obligated to post something so the page is not blank), I dug up some old files that might be at least somewhat interesting (and take up a little bit of space).  At the moment, this page is a receptacle for bits and pieces of paraphenalia collected along the way.  Please be patient and I will try to find something better soon.                  ---LMM

As both a patient anxious to learn more about my condition and a one-time neuroscience major at the University of Evansville (Indiana), I had at one point accumulated an extensive collection of research sources.  Unfortunately I seem to have misplaced a large number of them.  I have included what I could locate for anyone who might be interested...(Hopefully I will soon locate the others and they will be available should anyone wish to access them.)

Textbooks*(The information in many standard textbooks, especially those for introductory social science courses, frequently contains contradictory--and sometimes misleading--information, so use care to verify any "facts" you may encounter. I have listed with which I have been particularly pleased, but simply being a patient doesn't necessarily make ME an expert, either.)
