“Amazing, and even more amazing that it's free and available to all! I was so sorry that the Sutherland Center was no longer in existence when our bipolar journey started about 3.5 years ago. In the meanwhile, we've learned a lot in a somewhat piecemeal fashion, but to have this much comprehensive, current information presented by experts in such a palatable, clear manner was invaluable. To then be able to follow up with questions to the same experts was also incredibly helpful. I'm very grateful!”
“As a clinical social worker who serves people experiencing Bipolar Disorder, I found this series to be a great refresher and wonderful psychoeducation.”
“Even though I've been involved with a bipolar patient for five years and have read a lot of material and attended a lot of lectures, this series provided me with new insight and greater understanding of the challenges faced by patients and their community.”
“I wanted to share my very sincere appreciation for this series and the deep knowledge you shared. It has reassured us we are doing the best we can, given us hope, and brought us up to date on care.”
“[I learned] so much! The focus on sleep and other lifestyle management techniques, the discussion around use of marijuana and psychedelics, the journaling suggestions with clear examples of how and how it's valuable, information on medications (I learned a LOT in this section), and how to create a plan for crisis management and relapse prevention. And I really appreciated that all of this was presented in a way that always focused on the agency and empowerment of the individual with bipolar. That was a constant throughout all these sessions and an excellent reminder for those of us who tend to step in too readily with our adult children!”
