The Shocking Truth About Recovery From Bipolar Disorder
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 янв 2012
- www.bipolaradvantage.com The current standard of care as defined by the National Institute of Mental Health is to minimize symptoms and accept the high probability of relapse. While many tools have been developed to effectively manage bipolar disorder, there are far too many people who are still living on the edge of relapse and suffering greatly from it. Even for those who achieve a level of remission that is commonly called recovery, they live in constant fear that one sleepless night can send them into another crisis.
Trapped in a vicious cycle of Crisis, Managed, Recovery, and Relapse is the very definition of bipolar disorder and its depressive counterpart unipolar disorder. Even in Recovery, the illness is lurking behind every thought, waiting for the slightest chance to trigger a new episode. It consigns its victims to a lifetime of fear and constant vigilance in an attempt to keep the flow of energy and information at bay.
It is interesting that so many people have a different word than "recovery" for the state where we are limited to the comfort zone of no high or low symptoms. They do not call it "recovery," they call it "bored." It is one of the major reasons that they slip back into the Managed Stage and risk another Crisis. This is why the National Institute of Mental Health says, "in spite of modern, evidence-based treatment, bipolar disorder remains a highly recurrent, predominantly depressive illness."

I have healed my self from bipolar that was caused by developmental trauma. Therapy, hi gong, meditation, yoga
Are u taking medicine now
Hello,Rachel! Could you please describe how you have healed from bipolar disorder? You can write me vsuhaka@gmail.com. Thanks!
Hi Rachel, that is amazing! I do Qi Qong and meditation as well. Is there any specific teachers or resources that you found most useful to help heal from bipolar? I would love to learn more about how you healed.
Congratulations Rachel!I m convinced meditation helped you heal bipolar disorder!I think you re the first case I ve found to have healed from it .
@@daooflifeandrewchang4472 same here!
I used to think that I could "Ride Out" my highs and lows and make the most of them (especially getting things done when I felt good that I could not do when I felt depressed). But over time I came to accept that I was not in full control when I was hyper or manic and that I was not in control when I was overwhelmed with Anxiety and Depression. So I learned to avoid things that bothered me and I learned to avoid things that made me hyper or manic. Now I avoid everything and wonder why I am here.
Hooha888 you are a fucking idiot.
@Hooha888 You're a total and complete fucking idiot.
I'm going down that road.
Very interesting
so sorry!
I healed myself from bipolar . Medication free. No relapse.
Then it wasnt bipolar, probably never formally diagnosed. Never experienced true mania. Only managed by lithium and other like substances, AND therapy. Another self proclaimed bipolar individual. In the video he describes the reoccurring nature of the illness it cant be healed.
I don't think one recovers on his own. It just disappears
How?
Yet…
im 12 months bi polar diagnosed and im at the bored part, i miss my manic episodes
I've been using a journal to record my thoughts over the long term. Being able to see a month long manic episode plainly in front of you and in your own words is a powerful tool. Its helped me reflect and recognize my limitations, which has helped me curb the outbusts and focus on the more important things. Its also helpful because it lets me unload the stress and confusion that comes with the episodes and I can look back to when I was doing alright and remind myself that it will pass.
THANK YOU so much for describing it in a way people who do not suffer from bipolar disorder can at least slightly understand. This is such a great presentation.

Thankyou for the post I have been diagnosed with Bipolar type 2. People don't understand what it's like. Somedays I can't leave my house to go to work. It is such a bad illness it effects every area your life
I feel you. I have BP 1 and have had to leave jobs because I simply couldn’t get out of bed.
So thankful to hear someone say what really is going on inside the mind and body of the bi polar-- THANK YOU for the validation!!
Take your treatments, Stay away from "illogical" conspiracies being taught, Eat better, sleep better, little to no stimulant's, exercise, be brave, stay sharp with brain and logic training plus *pray* to curb the effects of imbalance and even possibly disappear them depending on the person.
Your welcome.
You left out all the good stuff. Write down your crazy thoughts, or act them out, or paint them, or work out hard. Take advantage of the good aspects. It is a gift. Treat it like a gift.
Lol im confusex but thats ok

@@MrPlooky So r psych meds; Mental Health Issues r ENVIRONMENTAL IMBALANCES (NOT "CHEMICAL" IMBALANCES). More often than not, it's how other people (mis)handle & (mis)treat u that provides the foundation 4 ur mental health. There's an old saying that says "U r who u r by the company u keep". It so reson8s true w,/me.
I don't remember where I got this quote, but it seems to make even more sense to me since I have seen this video and some of the others in the series.

Best description I’ve seen. Thank you so much!!!
being Bipolar and in a crisis situation last month where I attempted Suicide twice. I find myself between crisis and managed stage now and your videos educational
Bipolar 1 for over 30 years... Absolutely loved this video and looking forward to watching more of your videos!
Thanks! 🙏
TheOptimistikChic - Kristina thank you. I look forward to hearing what you think of our other videos.
Bipolar Advantage You’re welcome, and I look forward to seeing all of your videos. If you’d like to watch a short video of mine, that would be awesome. I have a slightly different take on this illness. 🙂

You are my hero and hope. I too have bipolar disorder with borderline personality disorder. I have struggled with my illness since I was an 11 year-old child and now through my living days as an adult. It really does hurt to be this way. I enjoy your outlook into the illness. For once in my life someone out there understands how it feels to be me.
Thank You!
Jennifer R. Samson why r you borderline?
My goal is to get from recovery to manage at will... The manage area is by far the biggest advantage of bipolar and make a regular human into a super human...
One day I felt myself going from manage to crisis and I decided to challenge it, I told myself there is no way I will be in crisis. I manage to stayed in that manage stage for a while and what I was able to do as a human being was simply unbelievable...
In that time I've lived the famous quote from Churchill... I was able to see all my past and see what my future would be like and what action I could take to alter my future into the way I wanted to be... The perfect simulation computer where my input in the present showed how it would be like 40yrs from now...
I don't care how powerful a computer is they are no were close to that level of simulation yet...
I don't like this. I have Bipolar 2. It isn't severe. But, my life would be different without it. I wouldn't have faced my struggles, had the personal growth BP2 has given me and learned some life lessons that made me who I am. Yes my Bipolar sucks but, this is my brain. It is MY brain and I wouldn't want to take away the disorders i have had because they have made me the strong person I am today and I am proud of the person I am becoming.
Good information. Keep up the good work.
OMG this is amazing news for me THANK YOU I needed this
omg. i completely understand this... this is exactly the pattern I found myself in.
I love this I wish every one could see this clip. So people could be more informed about bipoler disorder
I admire this man so much..I hope to get better one day and help others... He is so in my brain it is amazing.. TY for so much great info =)
Its hard
I was so relieved when I realized the presenter had bipolar disorder, too. I initially thought, "Oh no, here we go with some guy who's got a theory on bipolar disorder who's never even experienced it." Sometimes something as simple as validation from people who've dealt with a similar kind of suffering helps me find hope and strength.
Great information. Crisis stage just happened in my family. This was really on the money.... Any negative comments from people are ones from assholes.,,thank you for this.
Good start. I've known I was bipolar since I was 17. Committed at 23 and 25. Have tried almost every blasted medicinal combinations. The trick is to keep taking the meds and keep making the Dr try different ones until you find thee ones that work best and TAKE THEM! Bipolar is so recurrent because MANIA IS FUN!!!!! We go off our meds. Don't be alone-get a pet. Don't stay hiding at home-go to a park or museum. For bout 15 yrs I've treated myself by keeping clinical observ notes on everyone I know
Angela Smith yup meds helped me
If you're Christian, you can try deliverance prayer. Worked for me in regards to my past bad episodes of depression -- praise Jesus!
dude, @8:18 seconds, i said out loud, "i love you," i don't agree with it either man, thank you so much for these videos - you have no idea how much!
Living with bipolar 1 for 58yrs, the only thing i can say is that im a survivor.
Thank you for providing an understandable presentation of why depression happens! It gave me a whole new understanding of the processing of information. God bless you! You have given hope and knowledge to countless people.
In 1976 at American Lake VA Medical Center, Tacoma, WA in Occupational Therapy someone wrote on a coffee cup "I AM NOT AFRAID OF TOMORROW, FOR I HAVE SEEN YESTERDAY AND I LOVE TODAY! God has given me the gift of lithium for 36 years. What a gift it is!
Just diagnosed with bipolar but haven’t gotten the good treatment yet my psychiatrist put me only on mood stabilizer called “oxcarbazipine “ I would like to try “lithium” so I can go to my country and visit my family and friends I totally missed them and and felt I’m isolated from everyone because of my physical symptoms I get when I gathered with everyone
SO pretty much, ACCEPT AND RESPECT THE DISORDER. make it your fwend (:
I completely believe in this system because I have bipolar1 and have taken reponsibility for it and I am actively takink steps to prevent relapse.
Interesting perspective. Boring is probably the most problematic ingredient to effectively managing external stimuli.
Such a good quality information, worth sharing!
I have been saying "Existence is Futile"
but I have Learned to Avoid Most Things
including my Passions and My Dreams
to Avoid Crashing and Spiraling into Depression (Relapse).
I felt this. And you're not alone..
Thank you.
this is very good
@GHDrumBum Thanks for your comments. The prevailing belief is that we should avoid all states because we cannot ever control them. They are wrong. The problem is nobody is teaching us how to control them and instead are only saying we should avoid life. We do teach how and have gotten incredible results that prove we are right. You can learn to control your states. If you check out our website at the link above we will show you how.
Have you noticed that when he makes his joke, half of the audience laugh,and have of the audience remains straight faced?

pls someone reply to this comment pls tell me how to solve bipolar its one of my many disorders that i hate
AwesomLy expressed!
He is wright i took the treatment and now i expierance apathy and anhedonia all the time and i dont do anthing in my life
You don't recover from bi-polar, really. You manage it. It is not a disease. It is not an illness. It is how we are wired. We are highly sensitive and we react to a chaotic and nonsensical society. That is all.
The Outlander truth
It sux
Us bipolar people are being eliminated through this eugenics society. We are being lobotomized/sterilized from the medicine they give us. If we lived in 80 person tribes like we used to then us schizos and Bipolars would be shamans for the tribe which can be a high ranking member in the social group as opposed it being the complete opposite for this society
@@gwip1830 What people don't realize is conditions like Bipolar, Schizophrenia, etc. can be caused by reaction to certain foods.
I had a friend of mine who had bipolar disorder. But his bipolar disorder was caused by Dairy and Gluten (Wheat, Rye, Barley, etc.). Corn gluten can also be dangerous as well.
When he stopped both, he became a lot better. For example, check youtube video "The Milk Protein Casein and Bipolar Disorder" by Dr. David J. Clark.
There is also a youtube video by Dr. David Clark called "Cheese causes seizures" on how seizure was gone after dairy was eliminated.
Check youtube video "What Dairy Industry Doesn't want you to know - Neal Barnard MD- Full Talk" which will give further details on the deception behind the promotion of dairy.
I really wish for spanish subtitles in this channel (or this video at last)... so my family could understand and stop being mean to me...
hope your doing good man

Sorry that they don't feel you, it's a bless needed to redirected, not all people understand that

where is the rest ?
I have lifetime medication haldol injection, seroqueland akineton,and am very functional now
I was forced injection for a whole year
I stoped and received my healing from God, its been almost 5 months...im avail to sleep eat and not hear disturbing voices or paranoia...in God's name i received my healing Amen
First time when I experienced bilpolar was 20y/o after treatment I was cured totally for two years but today I'm 26 n I was affected again at 24 medicine make me feel better but I want permanent relief from this otherwise I always think to sucide but it's not a good solution what can I do
It is all about what the definition of RECOVERY really is. Are we willing to accept that definition?
Where is PART2?
Thanks.
I felt exactly the same: bored and constantly checking my nights
Anything help?
@@zacharygriffith631 sleeping pills don’t work anymore, being active during the day makes me feel excited in the evening. Meditation in the morning slows my brain, my intense fluid of thoughts a bit. Feel kind of angry when I wake up regarding the new day and I don’t know why. Felling tired of having bipolar disorder
@@guylainebouchard9989 I feel you bro slow grind
Can we overcome bipolar disorder one day ? This Is my question just got diagnosed but they don’t know what kind of bipolar do I have

@@BipolarAdvantage Its not working
Just started taking LITHIUM OROTATE and it has been nothing short of a miracle.
Theriver Jordan What dose? What brands?
You may also want to try lithium aspartate, such as the 20mg one offered as Lithate. A bipolar friend tells me that German made lithium orotate works fastest, but with the asparate she feels more fully associated/more fully in her head & body. Interesting stuff.
Hi,....how much do you take....how many milligrams/tablet please? Everyone is different...but I'm trying to understand the average mean.
Theriver Jordan hi
Is it still working well for you?
they key ingredient here is "willingness", that, or be succumbed to the bi polar and take the easy wasy out and deny it and deny help.
learn to breath better to help with bipolar eg.Qi kong tai yi is excellent for this type of disorder
Well, I got lasting relief from my past bad episodes of depression by doing deliverance prayer in Jesus' name. My issue was clearly spiritual in origin. People with bipolar can try this as well for their condition.
Apologies I was going to finish that comment but life intervened... With or without a particular methodology I was going to say. My worry is the early portrayal of dire prognoses for bipolar which seem to lay the ground for him selling his own particular solution...I would worry about a newly d.g person reading that and feeling an impending sense of doom...
baseball is such a brilliant metaphor
@AquaCarb We can define flying as the same as swimming too, but the official definition as set by the National Institute of Mental Health is what is in the video. One of the problems with the recovery movement is that they promote the idea that recovery is whatever anyone says it is. With such a definition we have people claiming to be "in recovery" while in the middle of a crisis. Nonetheless, I have never heard anyone claim recovery does not include symptom reduction.
I am scared I feel alone and need help :(
Did you find help Lucy?

In our family, the bipolar is what causes the trauma, just that it wasnt discovered til college age, tho I am convinced it was there from birth. It was the illness itself all along that caused the difficulties, not the environment.
I guess im in recovery state now , i stop carring about what others do around me , i dont give 2 shits if someone dies next to me , ill move along.
What is the follow up video?

Is this gentleman selling bipolar timeshares today?
I disagree with much of this (apart from the need to create a new system!) bit it is an interesting view point :)
It s curable
How
is bipolar disorder/manic depression really curable?

Yea but I believe in god I’m going to study abnormal psychology but I believe once I completely submit to him I’ll be fine I’ve had peace before
Next time share where we are
No no no no no... If you are so recovered, you are alot safer than 1 night away from a crisis... It might take several weeks of poor sleep and very high stress.. I do not agree. Knowledge and skills development lead to expertise in resilience. No no no 1 bad night's sleep, that's a load of garbage.
I thought I should share this. It might help you. What people don't realize is conditions like Bipolar, Schizophrenia, etc. can be caused by reaction to certain foods.

At first I thought this would be another manic bipolar person trying to tell everyone that psychiatry was conspiracy against the mentally advanced. He actually ended up explaining how it feels to be bipolar really well.
take the lessons on our website and you can have them back while being able to choose how to respond to them.
This guy talks as if he has see through my eyes. I hate my bp. Until I die I will be bp. I never know when mania will hit. I've made it 20 of suicidal dreams. I hate you bp, you took everything good, my ship has been shored with many holes of disbelievers of mental health disorders. Can't see it, it isn't there. Right?
I think this presentation is unfortunate. Living with bipolar disorder and working with students with it I can tell you we all don't live in constant fear of relapse. People carve out their own recovery, yes with the reality of knowing that symptoms often come back but these experiences and the anticipation of them can be synthesized into a recovery perspective in lots of ways. I guess I want to talk up people's native capacity to get better and make sense of their lives with our without....
Ben W If it's a rare occurrence, it's probably a psychotic episode or break. Bi-Polar disorder is physiological. It's like having a broken speed regulator in your car, due, at least in part, due to a broken K+ (potassium) channel. It can "go silent" for awhile, but otherwise it's a fairly high frequency thing. Diseases caused by channelopathies do not autocorrect overnight, nor can you talk or think them better. Although some suspect that a long term ketogenic diet may heal it, similar to how it heals epileptics. But that, in itself, is a long road (8+ years). I firmly believe in people's native capacity to get better, too, but with particular disorder you'd need to be quite good at reading & implementing scientific studies, and potentially doing your own n=1 self experiments. Not as hard as trying to do heart surgery on yourself, but not as simple as washing & dressing a wound. I'd be highly concerned that someone prone to mania would think themselves healed when they are not, since delusional thinking is such a pronounced feature.
Mania sucks it almost killed me.
I think this guy is nuts
No one asked for your opinion; and although everyone has an opinion (kind of like everyone has an asshole), intelligent socially acceptable humans know when to publicize or show it and when not to! Also, "nuts" are a type of food. It is usually considered rude, crude, and inappropriate to use "nuts" as an adjective describing another person!
🥴🤷🏾♂️😇💊😎
Theirs no recovery
Lifetime medications is important in bipolar so that no big relapse will happen
If you want to progressively get worse and worse and worse then keep drugging yourself
Kundalini Syndrome. How can ya'll miss that. it's well recorded throughout history. Get with the Program. Find a Guru
Dallas Aya that’s the devil. I did kundalini yoga and Aint gone lie it cured me but....it’s Satan. So they say. I just don’t want to experience that awakening thing hell naw!!!!
