And I can see how very relevant the "Dune" story could be, although it will mean different things to each of us. There's a whole branch of psychotherapy known as "Bibliotherapy" that deals with that sort of thing.

To help with this, I took a cue from one of the characters in the movie "Zombieland", and wrote up my own set of rules for surviving both the manic and depressed phases. Kind of like the action plan they make you write before they let you out of the hospital. Only funnier. (Psych Techs tend to frown on black humor in action plans.)

An action plan kinda makes sense. It's a way I can look at how feel and be prepared for the crashes.
My therapist today suggested finding some sort of program he heard of on PC that tracks your moods and gives you some insight to what your phases are like. I'll have to look for it.
