Rating is 3.5/5.
Strictly bipolar is one of the most advanced books ever written on psychotherapy.Though not a conventional book yet it adds to the debate of differentiating the mental disorders namely bipolar disorder and maniac depressive disease.
The author here outline that maniac depressive disorder though very closely resembles bipolar disorder, yet they are not the same. Using very simple examples he has outlined the differences.
Even in psychiatry taught in med schools they are designated as same.
however it is important to understand their differences so as to make changes in the approach towards them.
Manic depressive states can be easily handled through counselling and doesn't necessitate the use of drugs acting on the brain chemical functions.
Throughout the book the author has enforced the differentiating factors through vivid repetition of various personal experiences, and has raised a valid question that is apt for the present world.
The question is not "ARE YOU BIPOLAR" ?
its "HOW BIPOLAR ARE YOU"?
