Full Power Living Radio Surviving Bipolar’s Fatal Grip

April 28, 2010 - PRLog -- According to National Institute of Mental Health statistics from 2008, 5.7 million adults age 18 and above (2.6% of the American population), suffer from Bipolar Disorder, the result of a heredity-based chemical disorder of the brain.  The numbers are increasing yearly.  Because the disorder can kick up highly dysfunctional behaviors—such as drinking too much, sexual indiscretions, expansive spending, bizarre fantasies that seem real or threatening to the sufferer, powerful anger, and other symptoms, it is very difficult to endure in families and relationships.  Diane Mariant discusses what the intimate partner needs to do when someone they love has bipolar disorder when she and David appear on Full Power Living on May 6.

Since first diagnosed with bipolar and after his own brush with death, David has become a passionate student of bipolar disorder.  If you are interested in the truth about bipolar disorder and how to live with its hidden danger, then this unique presentation (Surviving Bipolar’s Fatal Grip) of a first-hand account is for you.  Diane and David Mariant (www.survivingbipolar.com) want to equip bipolar sufferers and their families with awareness and tools to help them survive and thrive. Listen as they share their “no holds barred” approach!
