Hi, Artist. You're asking me to write a book, which is a pretty tall order. It just so happens it's your lucky day, as I published one three years ago. Go to Amazon and search "Living Well with Depression and Bipolar Disorder" by John McManamy. In the meantime, check out my website, www.mcmanweb.com, and check out the three articles there on bipolar meds.
