Welcome, Francinee516!
![]() Personally, my favorite is Bipolar Disorder for Dummies. It has cartoons. That's not why I like it best, but it doesn't hurt(!) ![]() There is actually a pinned thread at the top of the Bipolar forum especially about books. You may want to read through it and see what people have had to say on the subject. ![]() |

I like the Bipolar Disorder for Dummies too. I think Kaliope might be talking about "An Unquiet Mind" by Kay Jamison. I like it a lot.
But I mean you can find A LOT of info online as well. Have you checked out the DBSA webpage online? They have a lot of info and resources. Here: Depression & Bipolar Support Alliance - Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance Hope this helps!! |

If you like to read a "real" book as opposed to a "self-help" book, then a memoir by Kay Jamison is the way to go.
