This is the best bipolar content on the internet. I usually can't watch a 5 min clip but I watch every episode of this show. The part about supranormal routines is 100% accurate. Being bipolar means we must be many times more consistent and stringent with our daily routines than the average person without bipolar disorder. I've learned this the hard way. Thank you for another wonderful session.
It’s so comforting to have a channel like this in the world. ❤Just purchased this book on Kindle. In any success story I hear concerning Bipolar Disorder, routine and especially sleep hygiene always seem to play a fundamental role in stability. This talk definitely confirms and clears up some of the science behind that for me. 📚

These podcast episodes are absolute gems and I come back to them often. I don't know of a single bipolar peer who stays well without purposefully managing their sleep wake times. Bipolar health care needs to be schooled on this subject thoroughly. I wish strength to all my bipolar peers who have tried and are still trying everything they can to live well again, I know you are watching these education videos. I never thought my life would be this good again. To those suffering out there, there is hope to get better. Do what you need to do to get well and don't ever give up.🤎
I have experience Circadian rhythms change in the last ten days of Ramadan and i felt healthier. I change my body clock from 12pm to 7am before and now 6am to 2pm and am feeling normal. Is this circadian rhythm change ok for person living with bipolar disorder?
Dr. Swartz here. You are the expert on your body and your body clock, so you know what works best for you. In research studies, however, Ramadan can put people living with bipolar disorder at risk for mood episodes, likely because of the circadian changes that take place when your body is on a new schedule to observe the fasting period. I usually tell people observing Ramadan to be careful in case their mood worsens during this period.

A lot of people rely too heavily on stress response to function. If you can function while stressed then fair play but to depend on it is unhealthy
