What is the best type of therapy for bipolar disorder?
Is it possible to manage w/o medication?
What are some good books you have read about bipolar?

I'd recommend you start with a local Bipolar and Depression support group. This will allow you to have a local group of people from a support perspective. Groups like this allow people to share their med experiences and what is working for them now. You can also find out info on other therapists and Pdocs in your area.
For me the key is group, a therapist, meds through my Pdoc and diet and fitness. When I have those items in my life consistently, I feel well.
