What does it meant have Bipolar Disorder? Did you know there is more than one type? Did you know that you don't realize you are in a manic episode when you are in it? Did you know there was such a thing as "rapid cycling" when it comes to the manic or depressive episodes?
Sally Alter is here to answer some of these questions. Sally experienced her first manic episode at the age of 15, right when her mother passed away. Her actual diagnosis came ten years later at the age of 25. This incredible, powerful and resilient woman tells her story, and the icing on the cake? She has written books to help OTHER people so perhaps someone else doesn't have to struggle like she has.
Her first book, How to Live with Bipolar, and her second book, Bipolar 1 Disorder Rescue Plan, can be found on Amazon, here is her author page:https://www.amazon.com/Sally-Alter/e/B0971TWK77/ref=dp_byline_cont_pop_ebooks_1.
