I was looking to see what was "out there" with regards to bipolar and yoga to see if I could contribute anything... and WOW - I've been blown away. I was diagnosed with potential bi-polar years ago and put on medication. To cut a long story short - I took the decision to come off medication with the support of my GP and a psychotherapist..about 6 years ago. My life's journey ever since has been about finding balance.. I haven't had any medication for 6 years - nor have I had any serious relapses. On my journey - I too have discovered the benefits of yoga, something I am now in the process of exploring even further. I have often throught of writing something about recovering from bi-polar, and I salute you for getting on with it. If I can be of any assistance in any way, shape or form, please don't hesitate to contact me. Hi Jane

My son was diagnosed with bipolar disorder at age 16. He's almost 24 now. He's hospitalized again now because he was having trouble with a new med, abilify. I've always tried to interest him in something other than meds...eat, sleep, fish oil. Anything other than such strong meds but he is VERY resistant. Thinks the doctors know best despite their very poor track record with him. Will share your site with him. All the best I was so happy to find your site.

I just posted a comment re: why people go off their meds that has a little of what I'm trying to work on. I want to use wordpress but frankly, I'm a little confused as to how to get it onto my domain host's server and use it to design a blog and things like that. Your work is really well-done and I'd love to pick your brain in exchange for manuscript crits or anything you find useful that I can do for you.
