Catherine Zeta-Jones and Hollywood: Bipolar Meets Creative Meets Personality

By John McManamy, Health Guide Thursday, April 14, 2011
Just a few quick observations on reports of Catherine Zeta-Jones being treated for bipolar II.

Whether a celebrity is bipolar or not isn't our concern. Who are we to judge them? Would we do any better in their shoes? We'll never know, will we? We're all here to walk a path that was agreed upon by us before we incarneted. We have lessons to learn and the perfect circumstances for us to learn those lessons present themselves. All we can do is our best.

 

No one in the spiritual realm will ever judge us, so why must we judge ourselves? We all must do the best we can with what we've got from where we are. If we give people the benefit of the doubt and assume they are doing the best they can in any given moment, it opens the door for non-judgment and forgiveness. When the sol-called A-holes arrive on the other side of the veil, they will get a full, panoramic review of their life, as will we, and that is where the lessons are cemented in our soul.

 

Let's focus on positive support and sharing the many safe, effective natural remedies for bipolar for our poor bipolar friends and family and try to lighten their load. BTW, great book, John. (LWWD&BD)

Hi. When someone you care about has a psychological illness, this should be treated seriously. I've been checking out this great website on Psychological Treatment Center California and I think you guys should check it out and refer it to some you love. thanks

Do you know anyone who went there and was successfully treated? Any idea of the costs?
