Summary: A fantastic ressource
Comment: I have been diagnosed with bipolar for 10 years now. This book has been very helpful to me. It's a difficult illness to explain to our partner. By using the techniques in the book I have reduced my symptoms greatly. It has also helped my partner understands me better.

Rating: 4
Summary: Harsh Reality - Only Saving Grace
Comment: Yes, I know the realities in this book are hard to accept. Reading this book was very difficult at times because of the grief I feel at losing my husband and our dreams to this disorder. HOWEVER, I thank God for Julie being so honest about what it takes to love someone with this illness. It's raw and real AND practical. She is the first one I've read or heard from who actually gives it to your straight. Her practical advice has been working! I see small successes in myself and my husband. I also now have a very clear and realistic picture of what I'm dealing with. Thanks Julie for being real.

Summary: A Dangerous Mindset
Comment: The concepts in this book truthfully scare me. Attempting to recognize and adjust or avoid the triggers puts one constantly walking on eggshells as EVERY thing has the potential to be a trigger. Comments and suggestions such as "Make the decision to not argue" creates a state of codependency. The partner will loose himself in his attempt to stuff his feelings. These recommendations are not in the best interest for the partner. It is not emotionally healthy and creates another sick person. The book is now in the possession of my therapist. He will dispose of it.
