TAKE CHARGE OF BIPOLAR DISORDER:
A 4-Step Plan for You and Your Loved Ones to Manage the Illness & Create a Life of Wellness
Presented by Julie, A. Fast
Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive illness, is a brain disorder that causes unusual shifts in mood, energy, activity levels, and the ability to carry out day-to-day tasks. Symptoms of bipolar disorder are severe. They are different from the normal ups and downs that everyone goes through from time to time, and can result in damaged relationships, poor job or school performance, and even suicide. But bipolar disorder can be treated, and people with this illness can recover and lead fulfilling lives.
By the end of this 2-hour workshop participants will be able to:
- Understand the Incidence & Impact of Bipolar Disorder
- Explore different types of bipolar disorder and their symptoms
- Discover A 4-Step Plan to Manage the Illness and Create a Life of Wellness
- Receive Wellness Resources
This event is FREE and open to the public. To reserve a seat, please RSVP by April 30, 2013 to Gayathri Ramprasad at gayathri@myasha.org or call the Cedar Mill Library at 503 644-0043 ext. 114. Thanks!
This workshop is ideal for individuals and families struggling with bipolar disorder, healthcare providers and the general public.
I look forward to seeing you at the event.
Wishing you Wellness,
Gayathri Ramprasad, MBA, CPS
