FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

The Key to Better Understanding Bipolar Disorder Now in a New E-Book

Bipolar disorder affects approximately 6 million Americans.  That's almost 3% of our adult population.  Although it usually develops during late adolescence and at the onset of adulthood, some people may have it in as early as their childhood years while some may develop symptoms later in life.  A lot of people do not recognize it as an illness and when they encounter it, they usually do not know how to manage it.  A newly published e-book sheds light on this disorder that remains misunderstood in some parts of the world.

Marion, Iowa (PRWEB) January 10, 2007 – Bipolar disorder is also called manic-depressive illness and is characterized by unusual and extreme changes in a person's mood and energy.  It is considered a long-term illness that needs to be carefully treated and monitored to allow someone to live as normal a life as possible.

"Bipolar disorder is an illness I know firsthand," the author says.  "I was diagnosed with it several years ago.  But the kind of information and literature I needed so badly to help me understand my illness were difficult to find.  I had to go through nearly a thousand books, magazines and internet sites to help me know my illness better.  And what I learned made a huge impact on my life."

By doing his own research on the subject, the author was able to produce enough research material and data to create a comprehensive guide in learning more about bipolar disorder.  The result is the e-book 'Bipolar Disorder Uncovered'.  Already touted as the 'definitive' layman's guide, the author believes this e-book is what people who wish to know more about BD are waiting for.

"I know everyone out there does not have a medical degree," the author says.  "That's why I wrote this guide in the simplest terms – the kind that anyone can read and understand.  I figured, people will never learn about this illness if they cannot decipher the literature.  So I made the book accessible to everyone – for family members, friends and colleagues of people with this disorder."

The e-book contains a comprehensive list of tips and information including an explanation of the disorder from the medical view, causes, symptoms, treatments, the use of psychotherapy, medication, side effects and a guide to seeking help.  It also includes a Mood Chart that helps patients monitor changes on a regular basis.

The author fully understands and appreciates how bipolar disorder can disrupt relationships and work or school performance.  It can even lead to fatal thoughts of suicide in extreme cases.  "It's important for people to know that this disorder can be treated, there is hope and that it can be managed.  People can live with bipolar disorder.  I know, because I have."
